Our Earth, Our Home

Every day a new expression meets his face
His eyes fill up with tears as he says,
Have we made this place a waste

Every little step of the way he says,
We must keep this place safe

From the trash to the pollution
He says, we need to reduce it

The murky water, the sickening seas
Feels like an explosion
Filling this world with poison

Home is home
No matter where you go

Earth is earth
And there is only one
If we give up then we are done

Living on the earth
It’s like a flame dying on the hearth

But as long as we continue to paddle
Earth can survive this tiresome battle
