i am mother nature

i am your home
i gave you shelter
i gave you warmth
i gave you comfort
i gave you food
i gave you water
i gave you air

i gave you everything

i am what you called your safe space
i am where you planted your first flowers
i am what brings you from one place to another
i am where you belong

look around
all you see are pieces of me
my trees
my oceans
my clouds
my land
my entirety

every single action
determines your future
every single action
shapes your environment
every single action
is what makes you
YOU

before doing anything
think twice
think thrice

when all the trees are cut down
when all the oceans are filled with trash
when all the air are unsafe to breathe
when all the land are abandoned
only then you will discover

the importance of mother nature

listen to me

start picking up your trashes
start consuming less plastic
start throwing your garbage properly
start living rightfully

because

if I am kept unhealthy
humans won’t survive

i am here since the earliest of times
i have witnessed the evolution of organisms
i have given birth to various creatures
and
i have seen them died at my own hands
i don’t actually need them
they need me
you need me

if you won’t take care of me
i CAN NOT take care of you

i am not a fragment of your universe
i am your universe

i am inevitable
