Earth.
Earth gave her body, she gave it us to share.
her breath once sweet, now pollutes the air.
Her waterway of veins, once were crystal clear.
Now they hold our garbage lifeless pools and mires.
Earth gave us her body she gave it us to share.
She gave us animals for pleasure, and yes for food.
Not to be hunted to extinction, penned up and abused.
She gave us her forests, for shelter and for fuel.
Not for mass developments, using greed as cutting tools.
Earth gave us her body, she gave it us to share.
The soil she gave for harvest of plants that now are rare.
For medicine and minerals. silver bronze and gold.
HER TREASURE CHESTS OF BEAUTY, WE’VE PILLAGED, RAPED AND SOLD.
Earth gave her body, she gave it us to share.
Now her tears are falling, can’t you see her pain.
The bombs that we are testing, fall out -- floods-- the rain.
Wars between each nation, like stabbings in her back.
Earthquakes,------------thunder, lightening, she’s crying with each crack.
“Enough” she cries “enough”, as planet earth disrupts.
Her breaking heart that bleeds, volcanoes then erupts.
Her breath now rages anger, tornadoes swirl revenge.
Beware the human race, planet earth could still avenge.
Earth gave her body, she gave it us to share.
The beauty is all around us, forever standing there.
Let’s not take her for granted, for some day she will rebel.
Treat her with some kindness, our fellow man as well.
Earth gave her body, she gives us life.
Lets stop all our hating, stop the greed and strife.
Earth gave us a garden, she gives us love.
Love is the only answer, god tells us from above.
Earth gave her body, give her your respect.
For she might rebel, turn her back, sooner than you’d expect.
So help her through her torment, heal her wounded sores.
We can start by healing each other around her windy shores.
Love her and those upon her, take away her tears.
Her promise in return, Rebirth the “Golden Years!”.

All Life is precious, the above poem I have posted here before many years ago… We are all of us reliant upon Mother Earth to survive..
All photo’s taken by my Sister. When I asked her if I could share them, she said ” Yes, Nature is Free, and it’s a beautiful thing”..
Thank you Little Sis… You are beautiful too! and I so love you.. 💖
~~~~~~~~~~~~
May we each of us learn to live in harmony with each other and Mother Nature.
She brings us our daily breath, and our daily bread..
May we bring her our LOVE
💖🙏💖
