The Light of the World

Why are we destroying our world, a world without which, we cannot live? Our world is unique, it has everything in it that we need and more. It is living and breathing and moves around very slowly so that each and every part of it has day and night. It has amazing landscapes and sights which are breath-taking. Amazing wildlife, oceans and mountains, rivers and forests. Without all this the world would not exist. It is a living and breathing planet which must be protected! We cannot continue to take what we want without considering the consequences. We must love it and care for it, and put back what we have taken. We must work together regardless of where we live, regardless of race, religion, or colour. We are in danger of upsetting the balance of the world and destroying it. We have had a warning and a pandemic! These poems look at the natural world in a new way.
