Whispers Of Environmental Harmony
Joe Strickland 1986 (Hobbysville, SC)
In our hurried lives,
We often overlook
The symphony of nature
That reverberates around us.
We trample upon verdant fields
And leave our carbon footprints
On our path,
Unaware of the fragility
Lingering beneath
Each blade of grass.
But environmentalism
Is not a chore,
Or an elusive concept
Confined to the pensive
Confines of academia.
It is a love letter to the earth,
Entwined with the finest threads
Of our existence.
It speaks in the rustling of autumn leaves,
The sun's warm caress
Against our skin,
And the ebb and flow
Of tides that herald
The moon's embrace.
