Realise our demise

The sun needs our love
It’s been taking care of us up above
“Help me grow,” yelled the grass
You didn’t hear it up in first class
“Let me grow,” called the apple tree
You ignore it while you go on your shopping spree
Flowers scream for hours
Go ahead and waste water in your shower
We are all just thieves
Who steal leaves from trees.
Be grateful to animals
Never be hateful to fresh air
Recognise the land you walk on
Recognise one day this could all be gone
Mother Nature made us so wise
Why yet we still lie
This might just be a silly poem that rhymes, but we need to open our eyes
I know I’m still a youth but someone needs to tell the truth
