Her Heavy Tears
By Penelope M
Published 26 September 2024
I feel Mother Earth’s heavy tears,
Lush giants tumble to the ground.
We dull the light,
With all our might.
I hear the whistling of the trees,
Dancing in the breeze.
In another century will I still hear them cry?
Mother Earth watches for endless years,
All she does is shed her tears.
Light seeps into the empty gaps,
I see the days lap.
Why do we watch our home tumble to the ground?
I know we can change that,
But now I need you to hear,
Mother Earth’s heavy tears.
