Where do we go from here Dear One?

What happens...

When we no longer feel the sun
shining warm against our skin
because of the polluted mess our air is in?

When the blue skies we can no longer view
leaving nothing for our children to see
for that beautiful site is a memory?

When the trees that were green
turn brown and never bud again
will we care what state our world is in?

When we have poisoned Mother Earth
preventing the growth of all new birth
and we are left to live upon withered ground?

Will we waken...

When our beloved children die
from breathing years of polluted skies
and drinking the wastes dumped in our streams?

Will we stop and question why
will we have time to make it right
or will we just watch it end?

Where do we go from here Dear One?

Who will teach our children how
to save the air, streams, and nourish Mother Earth
so this world will keep giving birth?

Who will teach our children how
to fight and save all living things
and accomplish impossible dreams?

Who will teach our children how
to live and love their fellow man
without disturbing the Father's plan?
