Midnight, my favourite time
It’s so pretty and free, it doesn’t even cost a dime
The way the breeze flows through your hair
The beauty of the moon’s stare,
The way the stars twinkle all night
It truely is a beautiful sight.
But we are taking it for granted,
Soon the sky will be polluted
Polluted with all these gases WE are making
My lungs are aching!
We need to stop this because our world is breaking!
The animals are crying!
The fishes are dying!
The glaciers are frying!
And nobody is trying,
To help the earth, that we need..
Midnight.. my favourite time, enjoying it will soon be a bygone time
