FOR OUR MOTHER EARTH

Leeya Sara Johnson 2006 (Kerala)

Rhymed
We fly with our aims
 We fly with our dreams
Never saw our earth’s pain
That always increased in its vein.


 We rooted our destructors
We uprooted our protectors
Never saw her cry
We never mind it. Why?


 We gazed at our gain
Till her pain burst on us like rain,
wind, fire ,waves, flood ....
We realized the pressure in her blood.

Bring back her beauty,
Bring back her greenery,
For our earth, For our earth,
For our mother earth
