A simple poem to celebrate Earth Day

Swinging on the colorful rainbow swing, a cute angel preening its delicate wing; Singing the mystical rhythms of Earth, she listed the affluence of earth and it's worth. Hues of the Earth is myriad; From wildflowers to unknown bugs, mixing up vivid colors for periods, making the Earth retain its verve. Aroma of the Earth is gripping; Birds' jingles, just jaw dropping; Uh, the butterflies, my alter-ego, spreading joy where ever they go. Rivers, mountains, forests, sky and sea; There's so much on this earth to reap glee; Alas, these humans fail to embrace things divine; How I wish they could relish these before they wane;

"Alas, these humans fail to embrace things divine; How I wish they could relish these before they wane". This is the same lament that rises from my heart too. There is so much for man to enjoy and devour in this beautiful earth. But unfortunately man has denuded her of all her original purity and charm. For selfish gains, earth is consistently destroyed and she is left unglamorous and unlivable. A beautiful poem dear Supraja.

Oh how I agree with you Supraja, humans are depleting the earth's resources for financial gain, they have polluted our earth that soon we will have to wear oxygen masks, humans are greedy and rip the more innocent off every day. I speak greek fluently but don't look Greek - one day in Athens, I bought a pair of sandals, I paid him, but I returned and asked him in greek, and the greek price how much? Sorry, sorry he said i didnt know you were Greek, shame poor tourists! Blessings, Jen.

This is not simple at all, nor complicated. It is a tribute to a way of life we should all yearn for.
