Live, live and let live

Wrote this for the World Environment Day, posting it here quite late.

Long ago, alluring was my beauty
I was blossoming, green and dandy
Now polluted with the toxic waste
Dumped into me is sewage with haste
It makes me cry, in dismay and sore
I wanna live, wanna live still more.

The land once pure so full of life
Forests adorned by sequoias alike
Now forests are cut, trees uprooted
The land is barren with soil eroded
My excruciating pain, do not ignore
I wanna live, wanna live still more.

Sky once azure with fresh clean air
For all to breathe year after year
Now with the depleting ozone layer
Exploding gases, smoke fill the air
Temperature is rising, find a cure
I wanna live, wanna live still more.

I bore living beings of all species
Insects, wildlife, chirping birdies
Now animals killed for human dining
Sweet melodies of songbirds missing
Where's the musical wind like before
I wanna live, wanna live still more.

Lookout world, am waiting for you
To make me fresh and blooming again
Plant a sapling in every barren space
Recycle, reuse, watch your purchase
Fill me thou with greenish galore
All I want, is to live still more.
