Save Our Earth(Earth Day -April 22,2018)



SAVE OUR EARTH
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
this.mother is much abused
to give, she never refused

these humans just plug and play
why aren't they smug and stay?

sadly, these rich spoilt brats
consume goodies, filled.in carts

man's appetite for.meanness:
grabs for self; denies rest, access

fights for a hundred.years
can't live in peace sans tears

destroys flora and fauna
this sheer shame has no aura

over a.hundred species
variety, for sure, pleases

many species.gone extinct
lost habitats are the jinx

dirty air packs a mean punch
ozone layer much punctured

evil man's hydrogen bomb
renders earth a lifeless tomb

can't biodegrade plastic
ban it; to make, is mistake

dams cause tremors-it is.known;
to react, mother is.prone

mother.hopelessly bleeding
'am bankrupt; no more feeding'

the.wrong way.we are.headed
end of earth always dreaded

some chance to put-off.doomsday
by changed lifestyle -is this grey?

let the other species be;
let man consume less; then see

if man leaves earth undamaged
his life is better managed

earth - man's grocer and.mother;
love her, to save from.bothers
