Nature

Destroying, devastating, and demanding, 
However we forget to cherish
What we take for granted.

The earth can feel the pain. 
The forest can feel the apathy of human beings. 
The ocean is almost choked by our waste.  

The Australian fire
Punishes the world, 
Admonishes the people 
To care 
To protect
The continent we live on
We breathe in and out. 

Preserving, appreciating, and protecting.   
We should recycle garbage, 
And conserve water.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

The earth seems to be feeling the pain in sundry ways. Recently watched an episode of “The Crown.” The fog, really fog mixed with pollutants was killing people for five days. The clean act soon followed. Hugs
