EARTH DAY 2007
We have "An Inconvenient Truth"
And Cheryl Crow traveling the land
With so many more celebrities
Who are choosing to make a stand.
There are scientists and politicians
And governments and some countries
But far too many of Earth's people
Who still do just as they please.
It seems all the worst offenders
Are those who have the most to lose
And all those poorest of this World
Do not have the choice to choose.
Our Nation's people and leaders,
Those who seem to talk the talk,
For one lame excuse or another
Are those who won't walk the walk.
We can't count on our Government
It will take the individual one
To just do our own little part
If we hope for anything to get done.
Most believe in global warming
Some think it some conspiracy
But to continue the way we are
Is dumb and complete lunacy.
Americans are so wasteful
And we should all be ashamed
Of how we've treated Mother Earth
Since our wilderness was tamed.
With just some very simple things
And small changes in our life
We could make a huge difference
And help to ease the eco strife.
So this Earth Day make an effort
To make this World a better place
For our children and their children
Lest we destroy Mankind's birthplace.
