Hey
I don't know how to recite
But a call by the earth, nature at its peak
Is a call I wouldn't dare to miss
Listen;
Can you hear it
Can you sense it
Don't you see it
Hotter temperatures, increased drought, loss of species, little food, the health risks, poverty and displacements - nature's plea
The earth breathing yet you never get tired of suffocating it
Truly, it has loved you at the expense of its own survival leading to its extinction
The clean water and air
Safe food and shelter ; the youthfulness of the earth
Yet you oh silly you
You have still refused to reciprocate to its love
You have ignored, forgotten the sad fact that there's no planet B
Except this only A that you keep destroying mercilessly
You have got rid of its grace
Ripped off its beauty, splendor and fragrance
That you know nothing of its essence
Hey
You found it here and you still need it here
Do you ever feel guilty
Huh perhaps you would then answer this call you have kept on wait
Listen to this nature's cry, voice and plea
Bring utopia to reality
Give my poem a good ending; scenic features filled with the chirping of the birds and the cool breeze
Inculcate every single word by letter
Listen, see, think and act
Plant that one tree for one by one makes a bundle
Walk, cycle, consider your travel
Reduce, reuse, repair and recycle
Use clean energy, eliminate food waste and eat plant based food
Consider biodiversity
Paint Mother Earth
Give me color; color green
For greener is cleaner
