Living On

They try to cut me down
They attempt to drain my pond
I've been chopped from the mighty axe
But I'm still living on
I am mother nature
The animals and I, have a bond
I grow food for generations to come.
I'm still living on
I begged them not to cut me down
I made life for the people, plants and the fond
My calm winds breeze to help them
It's lucky, that I am still living on
Now They are coming to me
They are stomping their feet, ready to bring the blade
They slice my relatives with a great big “BONG”
I won’t keep living on
Please, help save me, so that I can keep living on
