Nature Betrays Not the Heart
In the responsibility granted man
as fickle as he is foul
wheeling and dealing with mother earth
he'll take all that he's allowed
Raping the land of every grain of sand
and nutrition to serve his purpose
she stands in hope that one day he may know
that none of it was worth it
But when you are the disease
who can you turn to for the cure
remember please wise words such as these
nature never did betray the heart that loved her
A quote from William Woodsworth I added to.
The last and most beautiful line is his.
