The World Retaliates

A herd of birds and little bees,
 whip through the tall oak trees 
flowers grow in a different hue
 a beautiful earthly view.
 Gracious was the painter he,
 created beauty for all to see
 songs of nature sing the stream
 it babbles with the rocks between.
 The land whispers of a birth,
 something old and new from this earth
 the sun reflects and retracts 
Mother nature is taking back.
 We must give as we take,
 to often fix what we break
 but too soon it will be too late
 and the world itself will retaliate.
 What it gives will all be gone
 The last of our loving home
the world is tired when people quit
 deciding to take care of it.
