Fight For Your Future

FIGHT FOR YOUR FUTURE Fight for your future. Nothing is sure. Stand up and tell them you want water that’s pure. Fight for your future. You need to be seen. Stand up and tell them you want air that’s clean. Fight for your future. Sometimes you have to be rude. Stand up and tell them you want safe food. Fight for your future. Don’t get lost in a flood. Stand up and tell them You’re willing to shed your life’s blood. Fight for your future. It’s getting hotter than hot. Stand up and give it all that you’ve got. Fight for your future, the birds and the bees. Stand up and speak for the trees. Fight for your future and all living things. Speak the truth and wear your angel wings. Fight for your future and for Mother Earth. She’s crying and dying, the home of our birth. By: Carole O’Terry Duet; Copyright: 9/22/2019; “All Rights Reserved”

Yes, Richard, I too think Greta would like it. In fact, she's the one who inspired this poem. I just wish I knew how to send it to her. Carole :D

Yes, I know, Vjay. The future is looking dim right now for our children and grandchildren. So sad and scary. Thanks for your comment. Carole :D

Thank you, Lindsay. Yes, greed "trump's" humanity in a dictator's mind. Sad....
