Mar 2018
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!
