Just Stating the Obvious Poetry Contest

On this earth, the sun rises in the east
And sets in the west
This cosmic phenomenon can’t be missed.

On this earth, the oceans are tinged blue
From where their water came
They have no clue.

On this earth, to the sea the rivers flow
At the edge of growing delta
New land is formed low.

On this earth, the winter time is cold
Northern wind spreads the mist
Dark gloomy sky can’t hold.

On this earth, flowers bloom in spring
Colors splash on green meadows
Butterflies flitter on latticed wings.

On this earth, rain forests are vanishing fast
To control global warming
We need to preserve them, we must.

On this earth, life is a unique entity
Evolution in geologic eons has caused  
In the blue planet biodiversity.

On this earth, humans are species of distinction
Ravaging the pristine nature
They will surely face extinction.
