    This is my depiction of what Gaia herself would be telling us if we humans could understand her way of speaking to us.

    A Letter From Mother Nature

    Dear children of this day and age
    Just let me say I'm quite enraged
    You speak of how you're a wondrous race
    It's time to put you in your place

    Although you are intelligent
    You are small and ignorant
    You want respect yet give me not
    A pitiful shame that you forgot


    Dear children of this generation
    I can't take the desolation
    You are putting down on one another
    And betraying your own brother

    Although your righteousness you preach
    You carry none and still you teach
    Eye for eye and tooth for tooth
    This is a exhausted excuse


    Dear children of the planet green
    I am she and to me it seems
    That you do not remember me
    I am your home eternally

    Why must you poison my lovely land
    Why can't my groves of trees still stand
    I was lovely milennias ago
    But you took away my terrestrial glow


    When I was gorgeous and so fair
    I never knew you wouldn't care
    So listen to my final plea
    Please take better care of me

    Sincerely,

    The Earth

    this will be an excellent addition to the P.O.E.T.S. collection AdokenxRazahl. thank you. I really enjoy your presentation, like a nurturing mother scolding her badly behaved children. great thoughts on our continued misuse of this wounded planet.

    Thank you. That is how I wrote it to be...a letter to a bad child who has strayed the path of righteousness...

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
