This is a poem to celebrate the earth
For it causes us great mirth
Even though
We chop it down
Even though
We colonized all of its land we found
This is a poem to celebrate the earth
Our home of rambling meadows, effervescently sprawling mountain ranges
Wake up, all you sleeping guardians
Oblivious
To the despair of the limping bear, her child lifeless in the embers of a forest fire
She herself standing on a bier
To the distress of the nomad frogs, their hope a flat tire
Their pond
Reduced to mire
To the pain of oceans begging to be relieved
Of being polluted in
Relentlessly
Yet there is hope
This I will not sugarcoat
But unplug you Alexas, open your eyes
And there it lies
Marvel at the skies
Behold the smallest fly
And the next day, please
tell your friend
Here is the Earth we must mend
