Earth Call
Cast your eyes to the heavens
See the new blue skies
Lend your self to the birds song
and hear.
The night sky is now so clear
New moon and stars within reach
Now me thinks
How we are all interlinked.
Mother Earth needs time to rest,
to escape, just for a short while
from our pollution machines desire
We are only the few creatures
Who are Hell bent to have More
And More
Selfish, arrogant and conceited
Have inflicted so much pain and used
But mostly only abused
The animal, large and small
Insects, bees, cows, geese, elephants
We poisoned the soil
The rivers, the seas and the oceans
Went from continent to continent
Bringing destruction and a living HELL
