My View

Perspective through Earth

My View

I can see and feel everything

and yet cannot feel a thing.

I conceived, carried and gave birth

Life sprung and I became Mother Earth.

I saw that my beautiful garden grew

my seeds spread aplenty and flew

mixing amongst each other and birthing anew

old and new beings came into my view

adapting and attending to my garden

Creating, changing and advancing

Life continued on in this way,

Their pattern of a Life's Play

Now I watch as they destroy

This Beautiful garden is now their toy

the toy they destroy will be their doom

just like an unborn fetus in a womb

they are but seeds that can be flushed

if the Mother's body feels it must.

So, My Children, Here is my Advice,

Material Things will not Suffice

when they eventually come to realize

that they need to address the issues

to guarantee that life continues,

for if one life comes to naught

all life will succumb to distraught

Displayed before their very eyes

a chain effect of life lost

and they can do nothing but agonize

knowing they too shall pay the cost.
