What would our lives
Involve on a planet
We evolved to survive?
Are our current threats
Legitimate concerns, or
Have we grown numb
To the harsh realities
Of survival?
Has luxurious living
Weakened our instincts?
Would we be able to
Adapt and thrive
Or would we be
A cautionary tale
Of the dangers of comfort?
Subdue the hills
To rid the obscene obstructed view
And see the valleys
Flourishing with life
Dancing in the wind
Like spirits.
I wished upon a star
For a dream that felt so far
It could never be in reach
Until the atmosphere was breached.
That shooting star, it fell
My anxiety was quelled
As the stars revealed destiny
And showed that we were meant to be.
Not everyone
Appreciates
The world
Under our feet.
Regardless,
Everyone should.
Happy Earth Day! đŸ™‚
