I was born green,
resplendent and clean,
beautiful and balanced
the kind now unseen.
I conceived you, my son
along with the plants and the animals,
I guided you through evolution
and you've evolved as my best Creation.
I've quenched your thirst,
your every need
I've nourished you, my son
with a single seed.
My elements you blended
now you’re a technological alchemist,
but in the process you got blinded
For you I cry, with an untimely mist.
Once I let you play with snow
and dance in the rain,
But you've made me blow a blizzard
and flood you with pain.
I was the warmth in your cold,
my nature was your muse,
now all that is a dream you sold
for your luxuries misused.
I am the land
the wind and the air,
I am the water
but do you really care?
In your quest for knowledge
you discovered yourself and me,
you called yourself human and me your mother
Now look what you've turned out to be.
My resources all consumed
you abandon me once barren,
you predict the day of doom
but still won’t commit to prevention.
Last chance can be just one,
of warnings there has been no dearth,
come back and heal me, my son
it’s time to save Mother Earth.
