A Home Called Earth

it's green, blue and charming
i can feel the warm, moist of the ground
i was born here 'till the day when i die
a home called earth

the air that we breathe
the sun which brings life
the ground where the trees grow
the sea where we can feel the wave 

all are magical
all are beautiful
all are natural
all are gifts from heaven above

but we are too greedy
we build, we destroy, we consume the earth
with no regret with no satisfaction
in our home called earth

we don't remember when the rainy season should come
we never felt the sun shines too bright today
maybe we have lost our way
how can we destroy our home

we may look different and talk different
but you are my brother, my sister, my family
let us share more love to this earth 
a home called earth

Hello Mony. To me we are all one.I felt your heart here in your love of the earth and all those who share it with you.Obviously there is realism but life is not all sweetness and light.We are still learning and it's a slow struggle.Still so long as there are people like you and others'that care there is hope.I liked your words Mony thak you for sharing them. Love June

Oh so sad, what humans are doing. Well written write. I look forward to the time when the earth will be a paradise again. (Psalm 72 and Isaiah 11)
