Human Abuse Of The Planet Poem by Francis Duggan

Human abuse of the Planet that feeds us is now Worldwide
By greedy people beautiful Mother Earth is being destroyed
Every day more old growth trees to build more factories are cut down
And smog from pollution above the streets of the town
For industrialization that leads to job creation the price huge to pay
More species of wildlife are becoming endangered of extinction every day
This so called thing called human progress leaves a lot to be desired
Though the main culprits of natural environmental destruction by many are admired
Mining for Nature's resources has created many a billionaire
Environmental vandals among the wealthy class to say the least not rare
Our Mother Earth who feeds us creates more millionaires every day
But that we see fit to abuse her does seem quite sad to say
We dig her ground for her resources and her beauty we destroy
And when we destroy natural beauty we destroy a source of joy.
