NATURE'S CRY

Nature is the mother of creation.

She can create a life,

Or cause mass devastation.

Man, with all his tools and talents,

Has tipped the scale

Of nature's balance.

The song of a whale

begs, implores

As oil washes up

the sandy shores.

A lone bird cries

a grief stricken plea.

As it's habitat is destroyed

tree by tree.

Animals are slaughtered

to the point of extinction

desecrated and defiled

with no recognition.

And life can only stand

idly by

As ruthless man

ignores Nature's Cry.
