What Happened To Our Earth?
Is our earth in more trouble than we know ?
What Happened To Our Earth?
What happened to our earth, so pure,
Where skies were vast, the air so sure?
The rivers sang, the forests stood,
A world of balance, understood.
Yet now the trees seem fewer, thin,
The oceans choke on plastic’s weight.
The soil once rich, a fragrant bed,
Now bears the scars of what we’ve bled.
The birds once soared in harmony,
Their songs a gift for you and me.
But silence creeps where life once thrived,
A fading echo of what we dreamed.
Did greed outshine the morning dew?
Did we forget what nature knew?
The earth, a home for all who share,
Is crying out for us to care.
Let hope be born with every hand,
That plants a seed, that heals the land.
If we unite, the earth can mend,
Its story changed—this need not end.

It is sad that more people seem not to care about the environment. I always try to do my part.
