My Environment is my Responsibility

Be Conscious...Be Aware....Today And For Tomorrow 

That's just  the beginning... 
You 'think' you are so smart, so wise 
You- Yes- You... will help make it wither and die 
For there will be no more healthy insects, precious bees and flies 
Look- go on, unaware human- please open those eyes... 
The sun is melting into over-heated waters 
Fix it now for (future) sons and daughters
Every vein on every tree quietly bleeds 
Don't make it always about your own needs 
The stars are losing their foothold as diamonds in the sky 
Sea creatures are choking on our garbage we cannot let them die 
It is getting passionately hotter, not the kind from a lover's embrace 
It is because earth's precious climate is falling from eternal grace 
Your planet. 
Your water. 
Your air. 
Your soil... 
You are borrowing it. 
Preserve it for future generations....don't stab it bit by bit.... 
Caress the animals, kiss the trees, embrace the earth...plant those seeds... 
Then perhaps you wont just 'think' you are smart and wise....you will be... 
....and the planet will thank you in return

The Stream Where i Played From

Watching the smoke stacks choking the sky always makes me want to cry. I just can't help but wonder why The factories won't even try to find a safer, better way to put their poisonous waste away. The Stream where i played from Sewer as running as a child  in the ravine seemed so endless and wild. The water was clear and smelled so clean, It was so long ago that it seems like a dream. Now this stream is too dirty for my child. The water is scummy and smells vile. The place where I played seems so foul and decayed, And I shed the first tear as the dream starts to fade. Glimpse of a Polluted future where are the birds that used to dot the sky?, they are not here anymore, and I have to wonder why?. Where are the fish that used to swim in this stream?, I can't see them anymore. What does that mean? Where are the frogs that used to croak around this lake? I can't hear them anymore. There must be some mistake. I wish there was a clock whose hands I could rewind. We m
