I LOVE YOU
Mother Earth
So fair
Your beauty is
Beyond compare
Your treasures bless us
Everywhere
I'm sorry humans
Just don't care
Most of mankind
Unaware
From space you are
A bright blue jewel
Dancing with the sun
A closer look reveals
The truth
The damage that's
Been done
Your homeostasis
Upside down
The evidence is
All around
The melting glaciers
Are your tears
The coral reefs
Your eyes
What used to be
So beautiful...
It's destruction
Makes me cry
The poisoned rivers
Are your veins
That flow into your seas
The oceans are
Your beating heart
That now begins
To bleed
Your tears are overflowing
Causing shorelines
To recede
Rainforest are
Your lungs
But you can
Barely breathe
Deforestation shows
Its scars upon
Your tattered skin
In this year of 2020
Could we be
Near the end?
Greed and ignorance
Frame the face
Of what we call
The human race
But nothing else
Can take your place
You big bright ball
Spinning In space
Countless species
Disappeared
Their blatant cries
We'll never hear
They're now extinct
Forever gone
Not existing
Very long
More of my love
For you burns strong
But is can't right
A million wrongs
I love you
And apologize
The damage
Done with open eyes
In Hawaiian
There's a saying
Appropriate and true
Ho'oponopono
Means...
I love you
I'm sorry
Please forgive me
And thank you
