Wake Up Humanity Wake Up

What a shame, a crying shame, Forests, serene, so tame, Have to burn till crusty and dry As they breath their last sigh! Proud tall old trees that suffer, And weep as flames Crackle below, creeping Higher and higher, Engulfing them in an Ocean of fire! They shed tears not for them-selves But mostly for humanity, What will you do without us They cry, This Planet is doomed, Look out, or Earth will Wither and die. Flames can be seen from afar As branches turn their faces Away from their pain and a Dripping flow of Burning leaves, Whisper their story, Of eons, of glory. Heat waves unbearably hot, Have fueled these Furious forest fires No means of protecting Their beauteous facade, Alas, trees sway This way and that, Can bear no more, succumb To a surrounding inferno, Unbearable to see them so, As like dominoes they fall, And let out a dying call, Humanity hear us now, Come together and stop This carnage, For it is for you we cry, As we burn and slowly fry! All this was predicted Millenniums ago, Don’t forgo The wise sayings of Yester year, We feel and see your fear, Take a step back, Renew your view, Don’t just look ahead, We learn from the old And the new, Take heed, we Are speaking to you! Melting glaciers at the poles Hurricanes, tornadoes Earthquakes, unrest and killing Amidst a Covid Pandemic, Always remember We need each other, Worldwide organizations Have put Planet Earth On red alert, A humanitarian disaster By coming together, We must avert.
