April Walk In April on a delightful, warm, sunny day I went for a walk Down the block and around the corner Suddenly waking up to SPRING all around me The wild and raucous redsorangesyellowsbluesmagentas And of course green everywhere Earth is showing us all of her wonders Making us look at them But we suffocate her with carbon As we burn up the dinosaurs Earth replies with massive wildfires We don’t stop Droughts We don’t stop 1,000-year storms We don’t stop Now Earth is attacking our very bodies Will we stop? |
