The Enchanting Air Dances A Whispering Tune

 

Wondering

 

 

We keep polluting the ocean shore
with no regard to the sandy floor.
Why cut down every shrub and tree?
"They block our view!", you say to me.
Why dumps of nuclear waste
to poison our children, their future erased?
The trash is tossed from a windowed car door.
It all starts with us, whether rich or poor.
Respect for our planet is in our hands
to value nature and all global lands.
What legacy is left in the buried vault?
Destroying Earth will be our fault.
Will an alien land in future years
shake their heads and leave us in tears?
I wonder too, how about you?
