The Beautiful Blue Planet
Our uniquely beautiful blue planet billions of years old,
formed as a matchless marvel owing to cosmic contribution,
survived eons of trying times of tectonic turmoil untold.
Fostered diversified life in the tree of patterned evolution,
nurtured the pristine innate splendor like a loving mother
amidst the enveloping noxious haze of industrial pollution.
The stride of civilization scripted stark dismal story another,
we’re tripping the critical balance usurping the green canopy,
for progress the fragile ecosystem we don’t bother to smother.
Rampant growth is crossing sustainable limits ever so rapidly,
and to face the bleak future dawning the doom’s day we wait,
as the ravaged verdant terrains inflict climate change calamity.
It’s time the delicate poise of nature’s harmony we don’t berate,
for earth’s precious resources to the future generation we delegate.
