Dear World...

Dear world,
Sorry, we haven't cared for you as we should.
Polluting your beautiful oceans and streams,
Digging up your earth,
Harming your breath,
War, violence and
Fighting with our neighboring countries.

No wonder you cast bad cyclones and tidal waves on us.
Sorry, we haven’t cared for you, we are only just learning.
Please stop the pain and suffering,
the spread of disease and cancers.
Please whined down the time so we can start to enjoy our family.
Life is so fast we are always running and angry.
Please help us slow down and appreciate.
