A Poem for Our Ravished Earth

 


What the future 

Of the mankind will be?
If destroying the precious nature
Everyone is indeed 

Can you do anything?
To help it survive?
It is in your hands what the future might bring
If Earth is saved or meant to be ravished while still alive

I am going to ask you
 to give your grain  of sand
For you to contribute
 to save this saddened land

What will be the actions
That you are gonna take?
Or would you choose rather to be in no motion?
Just as a witness of its fate?

Finally, you must intervene 
For the new generations
to have the chance to go on in this world plenty of unaware beings
This is a kind of contradiction, healthy humans destroying without any conventions.
