Mother Earth

Mother Earth vibrates with pain,her weary heart heavy,                                                 
lashings of putrid poisons 
rain,                                                                                                 
the seasons will never be the same,    
oil extracted for mans greedy gain                                                                                  
polluted skies polluted seas,                                                                                           
what are we leaving as our legacy?                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                  
Animals,birds and plants all suffocating,                                                                          
because of the poisons ,that man is 
generating                                                                                                                                
 
trees are falling,Mother Earth is calling but on deaf 
ears,                                                                                                                                         
these are mine and others fears                                                                                       
So rise up and stop this slaughter,                                                                                     
from her sons and daughters.
