Dragon's Mouth

This earth is a celestial gift of amazing notion. Here the exotic birds chirp in green meadows, And frothy waves dance in blue oceans. Fog and floating clouds shroud Its snow covered mountain house. Their mystical silence so arresting, It chains the mind into a quiet standing. Here life sings its sweet and sour hymns. In its lap we breath, sleep and conjugate. Yet what a sinister offspring we have become. In its heart we have thrust a dagger deep. We are a monster child wrapped in greed Sucking the life blood of its mother's breast. Its lush green forests are becoming a graveyard Of dead trees and an ecological disaster for rest. Its waters we have polluted with chemicals. Smoke filled chimneys spew our black hatred. Plastic, carcinogens and poisonous gases Fill our land with filth to tarnish its acreage. Its grace is crushed under sky rise buildings. From the smog filled grey sulfurous sky, Sun's ultraviolet rays pouring through the Broken shields of ozone, send us chilling vibes. Our Mother Earth is sending us very clear signals. We need to understand its angry outbursts. Those falling glaciers are flooding land and oceans. Chemical discharge is scaring pristine rivers' bosom. Oil and coal polluted ether is changing earth In a super heated dragon's mouth of leaping flames. Pushed to the edge it would burn and devour us alive. Our beautiful planet is in grave danger and we are to blame.
