The land is in a constant state of birth,
Giving life to all who live on Earth.
Our carelessness and fears
Have taken a toll over the years.

Mankind! Long before your birth,
alluring was the beauty of Mother Earth.
She bore living things of all kinds...plants and insects, animals and birds.

Constantly rearranging.
From ocean depths to mountain peaks,
Mother Nature moves and speaks.
A stern warning by the poet that we all need to respond to and act accordingly.
