Our View

Our View

A Poem by NoraMaria
"

Let's appreciate our beautiful Earth. Sometimes you just need to find a beautiful view and enjoy the world pass by.

"

We all have that one place.

That one space

That one view

Doesn’t remind me of me, or me of you


Reminds me of our future and our past

Reminds me that we were never meant to last

There is no such thing as infinity for human nature

A continual state of threatening danger


We’re a species that is going to die out

But that is not what everything is about

It is about preserving what we cannot unsee

Preserving the Earth before we flee


Our view is polluted by lights

Trash, houses, and cars have tainted our sights

This world, once so beautiful

Has lost the shine on its outer hull


The planet that was here before we came

And since then has never been the same

When we leave it will restore

To pristine world it was before


And as we watch the sky turn a dark blue

Let us savour the last moments of our view.
