Cursed Earth
time goes by one hundred years
man goes on surrounded by fears
learn ? no he did not
he took on a fools role and suffered a lot
now he walks the earth, a barren place
void of life ,such a disgrace
colors are all gone ,now its just grey
nothing like the ambience of my day
animals are extinct ,or few are far between
i remember a time they played in the green
rainforests long gone ,now its bare earth
the lands been stripped of her beauty and worth
a magical tree stands alone
unable to help as it has no home
its wilters in the scorching sun
unable to supply oxygen its almost done
a child's cry far away
the sound of sorrow in this modern day
her future is bleak
as the past generation was weak
the years went by ,as the greed took place
the enviroment was cursed, by the human race
one hundred years now goes by
with only one tree to reach the sky
