I'd ask thy forgiveness, but I know thy disbelief of blame. Though thy terrors be great, thy bounty is much the same. Thy systems be wiser than many can fathom, and for their presence, I thank thee. We have loved you, respected you, revered you; but, then we also ***** you, plundered you and forsook you. Though we inherit thy Eden, we voracious inhabitants squander and profligate thy lush resources in the name of mere money- in the name of ourselves; yet, I dare to reckon better is deserved by thee, o Mother Earth. I hope we can eventually become thy apt sentinels. I have been honored to be in thy presence. Thank you for thy selflessness. I am ashamed on behalf of my kind, but I know you understand that we're still young. We'll come around one of these days, or, if not, I know we'll inherit thy wrath, as well. If such be the case: so be it. I wish it won't come to that, but, if it does, at least some of us will surely understand.

Dear Mother Earth:
I'd ask thy forgiveness, but I know thy disbelief of blame. Though thy terrors be great, thy bounty is much the same. Thy systems be wiser than many can fathom, and for their presence, I thank thee. We have loved you, respected you, revered you; but, then we also ***** you, plundered you and forsook you. Though we inherit thy Eden, we voracious inhabitants squander and profligate thy lush resources in the name of mere money- in the name of ourselves; yet, I dare to reckon better is deserved by thee, o Mother Earth. I hope we can eventually become thy apt sentinels. I have been honored to be in thy presence. Thank you for thy selflessness. I am ashamed on behalf of my kind, but I know you understand that we're still young. We'll come around one of these days, or, if not, I know we'll inherit thy wrath, as well. If such be the case: so be it. I wish it won't come to that, but, if it does, at least some of us will surely understand.
