A MUST READ FOR TODAY!!!
EARTH’S LANGUAGE
Today is World Earth Day
In April, on the twenty-second day
Will tell you little about Earth on this day
You, an earthling will understand; it’s your day
Earth, the only planet that supports life
Earth, the only planet in which everything is alive
Earth, the only planet in which all organisms strive
Strive with all life to be alive in the midst of rife strife
Though many a race; different nationalities, tribes and ethnicities; we speak a common language -love
Love, the peace of our living on earth, resting on our souls like the Jordanian dove
We might disagree to agree at times, but at all times we unlove to love
This shoven enmity, learned segregation, impure distinction that reign now will die off; differences be settled, the peace of our living be more prominent, and a language be reverberated loudly – love
We should love our domain, this pleasant abode, this incomparable habitable zone
That amongst three to the power of three planets habits us alone
Where Soil, Air and Heat coexist to produce a sustainable agricultural environment where plants are intersown
Therefrom our food, as well as our animal feed, is gotten to keep life being grown
Though cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, drought and famine abound
Though Earth’s foundations be shaken, oceans and seas overflow, flowing waters abated and life become unsound
Though linger political unrests, tarry civil distress, religious tyranny progress, and in a large mass trepidation found
Though all these happen; in the face of these a stronger people we become, more bonded and jointed, and with unity we rebound
Do not let complexion difference, accent difference, cultural difference and distance difference cause a hate within and without us
In love, the music we all understand, all these are inexistent, that they might cause no discord in our primeval discourse
Let us sing and play this music of love to the stars of the sky, the worms of the soil, the birds of the sky and plants of the soil; let love be all that we discuss
In these trying times, we all should hold hands together, break all barriers of togetherness, live and let live, thusly, love and let love lead thus.
