Carry On

© 2009 (Jim Sularz)

There is a way to save our Earth,
    from rain-swept plains to desert’s thirst,
         and moonlit lakes to rivers fast and wide.

From canyons carved with nature’s hands,
    to soft and fickle hills of sand,
         and shore to shore to mountains stretched out high.

From sea to sea to oceans deep,
    Her icy worlds now start to weep,
          and disappear before our careless eyes.

And from dark starry nights to bright sunny days,
    green northern lights will dance away,
          with flying clouds and rainbows painting skies.

There is a way to save our Earth,
     it’s you and I, and Nation’s worth.
           Carry On!
