OUR MOTHER IS DYING!

Inflicted continually she suffers in pain
In continuous hemorrhage she bleeds, deeply sore
Her injuries ever present across every shore.
Wounded to the soul by heavy Excavations
Her breath chokes continually,
Suffocated by heavy gas Pollutions

Her blood is contaminated,
Industrial Wastes and Sewages on the rivers
Gave her Lukemia
Oil spillages across the drilling shores
Gave her Cancer of the blood
Killing vital microbial activities in her blood system
The aquatic lives ever decreasing.

She suffers acute Hypertension,
She is at the risks of given up at anytime
The explosives bombs and the excavation dynamites
Sends heavy shiver down her spine
Creating continuos tensions within her Crust,
Parkinson and Convulsions she suffers from time to time
Dislocated in shape by radioactive explosions
Fractures evident by Slides and Ruins.

Her tentacles weakens
Knife threats at her legs continuously
Veins and arteries of her legs cut daily by Deforestation
Bleeding in silence, her cries obscure.

Children turning deaf ear to the cry of their mother
Brothers and sisters gone deaf, heart hardened
Slowly she dies and Surely she will die
On the table of complacency if nothing is done

Dear Brothers and Sisters let us heed this SOS
Let join hand to save our dying Mother
Our ever Enduring and Accommodating Mother
Our Sure Home, our very Own, Mother Earth.
