The trees stand silent

But they are watching

The earth welcomes

Your feet

But she rumbles

Ready to make her

Retreat

 

The sun shines gladly

Don’t take her smile

For granted

She feeds all

That you have planted

 

The moonlight shines

Tugs at time

But she is ready

To pull the lifeline

 

The flowers bloom

The wheat doth grow

But, they know ...

 

They know of your

Greed

They weep

And they wallow

At the warnings

You refuse to heed

 

The birds still fly

But they know

Because of you

They may well die

 

They also know

That if they die

So will you.
