A Warning

Earth is the only thing we’ve got 
Until now trash is the only thing we’ve brought
But now take it seriously in your mind
Stop throwing trash stop being blind

To save the world plant a tree
For each one cut you plant three
Responsibility starts with you
Corrections our actions the things we do

We are one and the same
Killing a tree gave no man fame
They are alive they breathe
They feel pain they writhe 

By melting ice caps
The worlds oceans will rise
And the land will collapse
Right in front of our eyes

The Sun once Sean so brightly
But now it’s changed greatly
Birds used to sing songs of happiness
Now they feel pain and sing sadness

How to undo what’s been done
Turn back the clock start again
Go back to where it all began
To stop it going down the drain

The green grass Shall turn brown
Making smiles into frowns
Water shall stop being clear
People will stop agility shed a tear

Have you ever wondered
Of these things go on a ponder
So go green stop global warming
This is a poem and a warning

Nice! This poem is able to tell us how we all have been 'blinded' and are not focusing on the well being of our very planet!
