Our Planet...

Our planet, our home and our animals we have a duty to protect

To ignore what’s happening to our planet is just a form of neglect                             

Mother Nature’s made many changes causing much destruction

Many lives sadly lost because countries are struggling to function

The climate is rapidly changing, threatening our beautiful planet

Animals at risk of extinction, their numbers reduce by the minute

For what’s beautiful to us now will eventually turn bleak and grey

We need to make many changes, so future generations don’t pay

Show respect for our environment, it provides us with such beauty

We can help preserve our planet; the future need not be so gloomy

Have consideration for what we share, everyone can pull together

If we carry on as we are, there will be nothing left for us to treasure

Fascination

Alone in the woods when darkness starts to fall

My heart begins racing, my skin starts to crawl

I wonder if there’s a chance I may see you here

Anxiously waiting whilst suppressing inner fear

Just a glimpse of your face the scent of your skin

Will ease my anxiety and feed my passion within

To you I’m a stranger but yet you fascinate me so

I can sense that you are different, why I don’t know

I’ve watched you many times, in your secret place

The brightness from the moon revealing your face

Your skin is so pale and your eyes look stone cold

You take my breath away, what secrets do you hold
