Bright red and grown
Held in one's hand
Once was sown
Now picked from the land
A piece of nature's beauty

For it is Earth's gift to share

Environmental Legacy

Our lasting legacy lies not,
In the towering stone structures,
But in,
The forests we nurture,
The oceans we safeguard, and
The skies we keep pure.
