Earth

The earth is a place of magnificent beauty
It's a place of wonder incomprehensible
Our beautiful mother sustains us all
Our beautiful pearl in the milky way
Perfectly positioned
So that we may live
And so that we may thrive 
And learn
There are a lot of things
That people do
To harm the Earth
And to harm our mother
But she loves us all the same
Even with the wars
Even with the diseases
The poverty
The ignorance
And even with the pain 
That comes from living
And growing
The earth still supports us just the same
In her loving embrace
So we should start loving the Earth
A little more
And caring a little less about war
And violence 
And ignorance
And start paying 
A little more attention
To the Earth
Our mother
Because she wants to heal
And sing
We just have to start listening

It's so incredible how much there is to listen to on the Earth as a living being, with how much there is to Earth. Very nice write, that shows the life and beauty of it, with the harm that can come to Earth as well.
