Mother Earth

Once I was green Once I was blue But now my humans, what happened to you? Why don’t you hear my voice? While I scream among noise, You are changed, You have made me dark, Full of bricks, plastics wooden and iron parts, My beauty is turning to widespread trash, Just for your little amount of cash, I have cared you from years to years, Fed you food and gave clothes to wear, gave you plants, and beautiful trees and to sail on gave you wide seas, But even then,my children you destroy everything, you think of yourself as my empire’s king, While piercing knives in my chest, you don’t understand that you’re ruining your own nest,

Akshay, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
