the earth was once a playground

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

a poem submitted by: ispeaktostars@aol.com

the earth was once a playground
not ours
not matter what belief
before us there were animals
there was sun
light
night
moon
twilight

it is not for us to dishevel
you would not want someone to harm you
let us not be hypocrites
and indulge in what earth has given us
from the beginning
mother nature cannot live on life support
