The Agony She Bears

All hear the sound 
It's earth, she's moaning
Man's pain inflicted hard on her
funny, we are the ones complaining
the air, the water so impure
listen! Hear how loud she's sighing
no one knows, agony she bears
was not created for this purpose
In sorrow, the Lord God shed a tear
He said no more, no more of this
Mercy was shown, the earth was healed
'Lest man learns from this nearest miss
God heals just once, then no more deals
