Did we make a mistake?

Did mum make a mistake?
She was rushing through traffic
And hit a long-necked turtle
Did sister make a mistake?
She bought a whole new wardrobe
Just to throw it out
Did dad make a mistake?
He cut down our ironbark tree
Along with ten others
Did brother make a mistake?
He threw out his old toys
Even though they were perfectly fine
Did I make a mistake?
I chucked my rubbish on the ground
Later to see a magpie eat it
Did we make a mistake?
How can we fix our mistakes?
We need to before it’s too late
