Nature's Gift

Dogs sniff and boats go adrift,
This is because of Nature's Gift.
Mother Nature may have made,
Cats, dogs and metal for spades.

We live on nature's ground,
Humans mine and make a wound.
To Nature's Gift humans say,
When will the pay?

For cutting down whispering trees,
And making pollution increase.
To make Nature's Gift great,
You will need to make it congratulate.

Thus, it is not time to celebrate,
The rare trees that are making people evacuate.
Plus, floods that were caused by us,
The flood that started down at dusk.
