Earth Mother

I swam in your ocean Flew in your skies Mother Earth so Nurturing and wise Now you fight back With perilous fury Waves and storms The bodies we bury Tsunamis and earthquakes Sandstorms and snow We have poisoned you Chemicals in tow I hope you forgive Our ignorant ways Man has deserted you Mother Earth nights and days
