Nature's gift

Nature's glorious gifts have started to fade
By all the mistakes that humans have made
Wretched rubbish here, plastic there
All this destruction I just can’t bear
Our Earth needs saving from our horrible greed
Our oceans destroyed, now that’s guaranteed
Murderous smoke suffocates the air
Countless things we MUST repair
Stunning snow caps on mountain tops
Melts away and never stops
Astonishing birds once so free
In our next generation this will never be
Evergreen valleys so sight-staggering
The gift of green blankets most flattering
The cobalt blue sky covers my head
The sun so bright, what a sight
Look at the beauty of our world
The world once so colourful and green
Pollution and humans have now intervened
And the world is no longer what it used to have been
