Nurture

She fed the poor man who longed

To eat after a storm’s pain 

For every farmer burning in the sun

She washed the pain with the first rain

She spread her arms

And embraced us with a smile 

It was our mother earth

Who we considered below us after a while

I pity that man

Who cared for only what he gained

Cuz if there is any magic in the world

Then in nature, it is contained

This pollution is causing

Our earth damage

Without the earth

We won’t manage

Stop the pollution

Help save the earth

Do what you can

And it’ll all be worth

Now is the time

To correct what’s gone wrong

B’coz there is no replacement for the earth

And this is where we belong
