Silent Forests - Whispering Shores

Once, forests whispered tales untold, A symphony of life, green and bold. But silence reigns where giants stood, Charred scars remain, misunderstood. Oceans choked, a plastic shroud, Where vibrant reefs once danced out loud. No sparkling scales, no coral hues, Only remnants of what we lose. The air we breathe, a poisoned sigh, A canvas choked by a smoky sky. The Earth weeps, a fevered plea, A future lost, for all to see. But listen close, a flicker yet, A seed of hope, we won't forget. From the barren ground, a sapling strives, A human hand, where nature thrives. Solar whispers, painting light, Wind turbines dance, embracing flight. Ocean gardens, woven with care, Restoring life, a future to share. The fight remains, on every hand, To heal the wounds, across the land. For future generations' sake, Let's mend the world, for goodness' sake. Let actions speak, let voices rise, For Earth's last stand, beneath the skies. For every breath, for every seed, We plant the hope, of a world in need.
