The Earth is Our Home

The earth is our home

We live here very true

With bugs and plants

And also animals too

They live on earth

They die here as well

some Have fur and skin

some have wings or a shell

For they treat the earth a special way

Don’t take more than needed don’t throw things away

They take and give

They help it out

They do a better job than us even though they can’t talk

When will we learn to act like this too

To treat the earth like the animals do

Is it when the sun can’t shine

through the blue sky

How about when the moon and stars

Finally, say goodbye

Could it be when the last tree leaf falls down

Or the fruits are gone and there are no cows

When the animals we love

Are all caged and bound

When the kids don’t know how green trees turn brown

Or when there’s no honey

Because there are no bees to be found

When what we know will all be a legend

Or when the trumpets blow down from heaven

If we keep this up there will

Be no more earth

Because of our own stupidity

We will get hurt

The blame is no ones

But our own

but we can change this

And save our home
