Mist moves through early morning Swirling a top the remaining craggy Gods Standing tall to form the Appalachia PawPaw trees hang heavy Laden with fruit, ripened by Eastern sun Precious ecosystem sustaining what shouldn't grow in this hemisphere What's left that has not been removed By blasting coal extraction Towers above us still, breathing deep Guarding us in silent repose Footsteps weave to and fro Sweet grass brushing sensitive skin My laughter echo's through the Old Oaks Honey bees gather pollen Buzzing happily by my side We must protect this special place Turn away from stripping her of her glitter Of her shine Clean air, healthy soil She can recover, she will survive
We have the technology, ability and choice to use sustainable, green energy. West Virginia does NOT have to become a TRASH state due to mountain top removal and fracking. Contact KEEPERS OF THE MOUNTAIN, a non-profit organization that can help you turn your land into a wildlife conservation that will be PROTECTED from harm. Don't let our precious mountains be *****!!! Coal is filthy and unnecessary no matter what propaganda is spewed by the coal companies. We have a choice, let's make the right one!
