Let us honor and cherish the Earth's boundless patience and resilience. As humans, we bear the heavy burden of being the greatest threat to our planet.

We must pause, reflect, and work tirelessly to heal and protect this wondrous home we call Earth.

Time is running out, for without a profound shift in our destructive ways, tomorrow may never come for us or for the precious Earth we inhabit.

• Unharmed by habitat's destruction,
• Unmoved by animal's aggression,

• Driven by insatiable greed,
• And the selfish creed of "me first."

• Not one of redemption, but of demise,
• Not one of solace, but of retribution,
• Will we learn from Covid, or meet our end?

• But the shared home of all beings,
• A divine gift to be cherished,
• And protected for eternity.

• Let us shower her with adoration,
• Let us tenderly caress her,
• Let us lovingly tend to her needs,
• And safeguard her forevermore.
• Happy Earth Day, beloved planet…r.k.r
