We celebrate just once a year
Great blessings that we should hold dear
One day to cherish every rock and tree
Meadows and lakes and the bright blue sea
But can we appreciate Mother Earth
Can we grasp her amazing worth
If only one day is set aside
To ensure our eyes are open wide!
Earth Day should be all year long
We need to change what we’re doing wrong
Mother Earth’s in trouble and we’re the reason
We use and abuse in every season
Our rivers and streams no longer run clear
And too many creatures have disappeared
We must keep promises that we make
The future of Mother Earth’s at stake!

A beautiful poem to treasure our Earth every day of the year.

We need to change what we’re doing wrong
Mother Earth’s in trouble and we’re the reason
We use and abuse in every season
If only millions more could see what you see, and know what you know.
