Ghita Manaila Poet Rhyme

The Earth Is Sad

The Earth is sad because
There is too much corruption 
The Earth is sad because
There is death and destruction.

The Earth is sad because
There is too much pollution
The Earth is sad because
There's terror and confusion.

The Earth is sad because
There is a cruel clime
The Earth is sad because
There's war and there is crime.

The Earth is sad because
There's suffering and pain
The Earth is sad because
The peoples work in vain.

The Earth is sad because
There is too much vanity,
Pride ,hate and insanity
And little humanity.

So, I think it is your mission
To take up a right position
And to find a good solution
To violence and pollution.

Marsha Miller September 5, 2017 at 8:59 AM I like your message but stew over the solution to end all of the evil that exists on earth.

Adam Kinsley September 4, 2017 at 2:22 AM There will never be an end to war, destruction, corruption, crime, etc. People have been committing the same acts and the earth has endured over-population, over-irrigation, etc. since the beginning of society. Ghita Manaila September 4, 2017 at 2:59 AM Yes, you are right but many of them could be avoided.
