About nature’s slow death, as our natural environment struggles for survival.

My heart aches with emotion
As I see the world and all its wonders
Die a slow and painful death
I watch with despair
Knowing I am powerless
To stop the suffering of
The natural world
As animals and plants ultimately
Lose their fight for life
Anger wells up inside me
And sparks a flame of 
Passion and determination
To rid the world of its pain
And seek justice for all species
There is still hope
Hope for a world of peace
And harmony
Hope that humans will learn to care
And hope that there is time to rid
the natural world of harm
Until Time runs out
And nothing remains
