Then there was planet Earth: Take the Time to Honor the Wisdom of the Earth Take the time to honor the wisdom of the Earth Before its regenerative powers of rebirth slip away From the blueness of the canopy streaked in the sun’s rays With whispery white clouds of child's play Lost to the sky of the colors of grey From the hazy air lingering through each day Obscuring the vision that cannot be cleared even in a blink away Take the time to honor the wisdom of the Earth Before its regenerative powers of rebirth slip away From the babbling brook likened to a musical soiree Cascading nonsensically on its merry way Lost to the waters clouded in a turbid display From the toxic defilement infiltrating the river's pathway Tarnishing the underlying river's bed forming the thickened power play Take the time to honor the wisdom of the Earth Before its regenerative powers of rebirth slip away From the habitual air currents blowing strong making headway Rising to the four seasons consistent through the straightaway Lost to the trade winds gone astray Over the expansive oceanic passageway through the off course planetary whirl of the day Take the time to honor the wisdom of the Earth Before its regenerative powers of rebirth slip away From the spark of the fire that feeds the forest underway Clearing the undergrowth for the future mainstay Lost to the blaze searing uncontrollably, as if it were an expressway Of combustion taking all in its wake as it migrates Posturing as a throughway Take the time to honor the wisdom of the Earth Before its regenerative powers of rebirth slip away From the heavenly gaze of the Milky Way To the wondering of the brightly filled space creating the display Lost to the intangibility of this skyway From the earth's demise in need of a miracle play Due to its exponential decay #Haiku #Poetry #Poems #Environmental #ClimateChange #Nature # Climate
