My Poem of the Day
(09/24/14)
My Final Say©
I stand high on the tallest mountain
With my arms flying high
People gathered from all around
I’ve waited so long
To stand proud
And have my final say
They plan to take from me,
My friends and my neighbors
The land mother nature has nurtured since the beginning of time
They intend to build, build and build
Until the land is empty no more
It matters none that the animals have lost their way
They come into our homes
They live in our back yards and our attics
Because man has taken the only home they’ve ever known
When they are caught they are euthanized for trespassing
On land that use to be their own
We must take a stand for us the people
And for them
The animals
The air is slowing leaving
Soon we won’t even breathing
The hunger that will come as all starts to die off
All so the man could continue with his building
To fill each square foot with machines that devour all our resources
When the lights turn off and we sit in the dark
With no food
And no place to lay our bed
Then and only then
Will man see the problem he created
And what will he do then
Stand here on this mountain
Stand tall and speak with me
And tell the story of what you see
And hope that it’s not too late to be heard
And to see what man can do to fix the mess he made
