if the Earth was a child.. what would you do?

If the Earth was a Child



If the Earth was a child, sir

What would you do?

Would you nurse it lovingly?

Or would you name it after you

Would you hold it close?

And kiss it on the head

Or would you neglect this creature

And suffocate it dead.

My fellow man

Since you hold the world in your hands

Hear these words to you

Nurture this planet kindly

And it will nurture you.
