The skies are blue like the sparkle of the ocean
The earth is green as a leaf in the spring time
The thoughtless acts of man
One day make it so untrue
The disrespect for the colors makes it all fade to grey
Happy earth day
We all come together to celebrate the earth
But forget about our challenges the very next day
We think we are smart and cleaver
But even our efforts don’t put a dent in a feather
We watch the animals die as they struggle through our mess
We were supposed to be care takers
But look at what we’ve become

I enjoyed this! I'll try to get back later to read more of your poetry. I actually found you through an older story you published in the Swamp. I'm Bill (Bolt). I've subscribed to you. ⚡💙⚡
lovely sentiment to our beautiful planet.
