Mother Nature does not need us and we just don’t get it We living in a time where staying away from people you care about is a sign of love Hugging each other is a weapon of mass destruction Human kind is confined to their dwelling places As the cats, dogs and Durban monkeys play on our lawn We stock up our pantries with food as we prepare to hibernate like little animals We sit with our hands gloved, Our mouths and noses are covered as we told not to touch anything like little children Both rich and poor, young and old, royalty and commoners We are all grounded Sit down with your hands on your laps don’t touch anything Go to your room don’t say a word Churches , casinos,schools are closed Life as we know it has stopped Yet one factor about life remains constant and exponential Death. Watch and most importantly listen as Mother Nature teaches us a lesson on how to love. It’s not enough to send a message on a birthday or see your loved ones only when it’s convenient for you! It’s not enough to forget about the elderly as fragile as they are. It’s not good enough! We don’t need to be here. Mother Nature claims claims what’s hers. The grass continues to grow , birds continue to sing , Water continue continues to flow Mother Nature is free of our distructive behavior and malice ways. Humans are just byproduct of this earth We don’t have to be here Everything will continue as normal YOU don’t have to be here Everything will still continue as normal It’s a privilege to be here. Appreciate to be here.
