Dear Earth

Sorry for making you a hearth

Depriving ourselves of mirth

For of entitlement, there is no dearth

When we stopped seeing stars in the sky

We should have paused from weaving a lie

And asked why

Listening to you cry


Global warming someone said

That is not real, we turned our head

With species extinct, we didn’t care for the dead

As long as we were fed


To animals, of course, we are superior

Dominance is our motive ulterior

Of torture and cruelty, we have been a carrier

Confining the innocent in many a barrier


Trees are made and meant to be giving

In spite of our ingratitude, forgiving

We have failed to be loving

Even when we have seen the green disappearing

Polluted and depleted is our water

With marine life experiencing a batter

The ecosystem is under bountiful shatter

We ignore now to regret later


Melting ice and eroded topsoil

No value for the food, a result of toil

All we know is how to spoil

To leave the planet on a boil


Only when there is a pandemic

Crippling the humankind sick

Do we realise the prick

Of an action to be taken real quick
