She brings different things to the table But never on an empty plate Of her earthly views in what we should do For the planet before it's too late
She is one in tune with nature Under the thumb of modern man Never to cave nor give away Or in to corporate demands
She feels for the downtrodden in plight A people with no voice of their own Desperate for a better life Hoping for a better home
She hears Mother Earth in her grumbles Feels her pain as she moans Along with the sky she often cries Can they not see what's going on ...or what is to come
She finds she can not stand by And simply watch as her world falters She knows the truth, she's seen the lies And stepped up when her mother called her
She's seen things she'd rather not see But on them she won't turn her back It's what feeds that insatiable need To right all before there's nothing left That keeps her moving ahead
Wrote this for a friend, though we seldom agree on much I do admire her concern for our environment. And believe me she IS a fighter!
