Gaia's Gift
A loving mother some state
a barrier of truth lies in these words
the rest lie in the maintainer of that reality
Earth does not need us to survive
but the opposing is not true
as from birth
we fall on the ground and stare at the stars
always having a ground to fall upon
making it a bit easier to stand
delicious foods growed upon the land
lent to you by the life of the land
gives and gives until the land once given is corrupted
and the love becomes painful
answer me who will be blamed
the other creatures as we build factories
upon the gravesite of earth
What land are we leaving for others
to fall and entrust to
Why must we be blinded
by the need of material damage
listen closely
will the voices of the trees surround you in time
or will we create a world
of volcano
and deserts
Tell stories of trees
instead of climbing them and mountains
we dodge them
saying they are business's property
the amazon forest
the amazon desert all the same
as we have amazon prime the only thing we care for
the nile
the Missouri and all rivers turned to enemy
as the grounds are polluted to toxicity
You will say you love them
but will you love the world that we left
if you have to think of something
think of the future of humanity nonetheless
will you let the world go to shambles
or finally see....
The evolution of humanity lies in mankind's hand
