Earth, it is the only planet
With everything we can get
We have the moon for light,
The sun for living
Then we have the stars, twinkling
Last we have the clear blue sky for a beautiful sight.

We have our unique animals,
Although most are mammals.
Every country has it’s own.
Birds, reptiles, amphibians too.
Marine lives, and mammals, like Cows that go moo!
You can find them at a zoo, where They’re shown.

We should take more care of our trees and plants.
Because if we don’t, we will soon freeze.
Autumn, when all the leaves fall
Trees, in winter, they can be frozen,
But it will grow the same tree chosen
They might go small, instead of growing tall!

One of the most important thing is the water, which we drink,
We need to save water or the earth will shrink.
Not only that, but the marine life will be rare.
Extinct animals of the sea,
Nowhere to go nowhere to be.
And no water for living, earth will be bare.

Air, the most precious thing for life and anything that
flies,
If it gets polluted we will loose everything, including butterflies,
We should be more aware of strong winds,
Because it can cause disasters, very bad,
And can allow families to be sad.
If hot air mixes with cold, a tornado we shall find.

The sun, with its beautiful and life rays,
Although warm, it causes cancer if the ozone layer splits away.
It is a great ball of heat,
But is a giant, hot star
And much far from stars, much far
If you are in a rocket you won’t like to have a seat!

Earth is our home it protects us,
And we should protect it too without any fuss.
We should help it, Instead of destroying it hand by hand.
Give me a tin of green paint and a brush
And the idea of peace in people’s mind will rush
Otherwise we will loose all the amazing seas and sand.
