Nature

By: Stephen Wojciech

As the majestic sunset dims away

and as today will soon be yesterday

I stand with nature between me

nature as beautiful as it can be

An exotic smell of pine

the flowers smell just as fine

And to think

why people pollute this world

with empty drinks

People should stop

and take a thought

littering this world they should not

because nature can’t be bought

It is priceless

this generation we live in

is like an empty world with only silence

and now we are in a disastrous crisis

I can hear the trees yelling

screaming as people yell “Timber!!!”

for they’re getting chopped up and used for lumber

I beg you to save

and I thank you for those who gave

and all those who obeyed

for we are not ready to bury the wilderness in a grave
