A letter to Earth from Man
Dear Earth,
I must confess,
I love you no more,
I used to but those thoughts slowly faded from me. . .
Indoctrinated by greedy capitalist society we all serve.
A prison we think of as life.
As I reflect back on the years,
I see how my selfish desires for self gain have destroyed you.
You are the mother who bore me children of,
-Sweet Water-
-Delightful Crops
and Energetic Sun-
At the expense of your once so round and voluptuous figure.
And cliched as it may be . . .
I cant live without you,
I can't survive without you.
I promise to take care of you,
Love you whatever it takes,
Water our love so that it may once again bloom.
When all said and done,
Your winds will till end of time whistle swiftly from East to West,
And the rain will fall just like it always has.
The question is . . .
WILL-I-MAN-ALSO-REMAIN ?

thoughtful poem....the earth is not as fragile as we might think ... man does harm to man's ability to live in an ideal world ... when we pollute we only hasten our demise , when we are gone the earth will still exist ...man after all has been only on this earth a few seconds in geological terms..lol
Congrats on your winning nomination
Regards

Thank you so much!
I hope this poem raises awareness for nature conservation. The earth has given to man so much of herself selflessly. She has withheld nothing from us. Since the beginning of time, it has just been this intrinsic relationship of Earth and Man. The mistake we make is to assume that we shall continue to use her resources and not take care of her. Ironically we think we shall outlive her when it is the sad reality that she shall outlive us. This process is destined, however it will happen quicker if we carry on not taking care of her.
