World Wonder

In time come, a world like none

A barren land, useful to none

It strikes us then of what we did

An act which like any, to the end forbid

Out in the scorch, dry in the heat

Praying to find a shade for our feet

There stands a tree, one like any

Which we fail to see, when felling many

Dry to the throat, with cries so shrill

There comes water, with a glass up to fill

We’d never know, the thing we behold

Is what we need, more than gold

The time has come, now more than ever

To not take it granted, and to be clever

Let’s hold hands, for a selfless earth

To conserve our mother, of all that’s worth
