A strife for change

The sky is blue and the sun is yellow

To our wonderful world, we say hello

The grass is green, flowers are green 

That was before the world buckled with greed 

First came extinctions: reptiles, amphibians 

The tiger in Tasmaina was nowhere to be found

But there was one trace on the ground

The West African Rhinoceros killed by poachers

I wish I could kill those roaches

Then came hazards earthquakes, tsunamis

Japan had the worst, like a kick in karate

The tectonic plates rubbing and clashing

That's why everything was falling and smashing

And as landfill piled with waste 

Everyone knows we're trying to slow down the pace 

Recycling is hard and everyone tries 

But nobody applies...

But despite all the bad things, nature thrives in the nick of time
