Today I watched a tree in the rainforest fall to the ground
It was not dead or dying
It was not diseased
It was in the way

Oh I cried
Tears streamed from my eyes
In pain for mother earth

I felt it in my womb
A rock, a stone
Turning turning
And begging for help

I prayed with all my soul,
all my heart,
all my existence
that she heal herself

Please mama!
Please! I don’t know what else to do
But to ask you to help me help you

Come Noah
Come again
I see a flood rolling through
This planet needs you

We must change
Theres no other way
If you care to see this beautiful oasis
Carry on

Is it possible to change the mind
of those who do not believe
We can only take what is offered
And replenish what we have that will sustain
Sustain

Stop driving
Start planting
Eat from the earth
No more plastic

Please if you felt what I feel
You would care for yourself
Your brothers, sisters and
your home

Start right now
This minute
Put down that remote
Put down that mouse

Put down that candy
That burger
That gun

Stop your tank
For we are fighting for that which will not last
For that demolition bulldozer digging our grave

Look at the time
Right now
Those minutes
those numbers are asking you to pay attention

Not tomorrow
Not after work
Stop reading this
And go outside

Absorb the sun
Give thanks for your life
And do something for our home
This graceful beautiful planet

We can do this!

Blessings
