Mother Earth’s Children

We need to stop pretending we’re in charge
Like children disregarding Mother Earth
There must be fields of good we can enlarge
Like planting tiny seeds of noble worth
The worth of noble oceans, lands, and air
Enrich our lives with calls for noble use
In all we do we need to show we care
The care we show should always be profuse
Profusion can be big or little acts
As long as we’re consistent with our deeds
Our Mother Earth revolves, responds, reacts
She knows how to fulfill our simple needs
We need to breathe, to eat, to drink, to live
And Mother Earth needs noble souls who’ll give.
