Decimation by Simon Marshland Wednesday, June 29, 2011 Rated "PG" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan
Where fly our bees and butterflies Where nest our birds of song Who cares if our last meadow dies Who bothers what’s gone wrong What selfish careless things we’ve done How deep should be our shame Cupidity and greed have won Base urge of the inane This land is ours but ours on trust Not ours to mar despoil Ten million years turned back to dust Two thousands wasted toil There is still time but only just Still time to mend our ways And together with concerted thrust Reverse this trend that slays Aid the miracle of rebirth For the children yet unborn To shape a fresh and new Earth With a living breathing dawn
