Nature

Nature is a precious thing, 
We sometimes take for granted;
But only when it is gone 
We realise how many trees we should have planted.  
We build all our houses and factories 
To strengthen life's fragile nervous system;
But to the animals they are like ugly freeways 
Built over their vast ecosystem

Oxygen is now a scarce resource
That only the richest can obtain;
All those who cannot afford it 
Will either steal or die in vain.
All those eco friendly people 
Trying to save the earth that's mostly dead;
If we had wanted a better future 
We should have listened to what they said.

There's rumour of a spaceship 
Designed to take us to another planet
It will be a fresh start, a new beginning
 and this time we won't make our house full of granite
