I am earth

The water is my blood
The stars are my twinkling ideas
The animals are my heart
If you dirty the water
You dirty my blood
If you block out the stars
You block out my ideas
If you take away the animals
Then you take away heart
If I have none of these
Then what can I give?
If I have nothing to give
Then you have destroyed me
