The Cost of Our Neglect

 

There's not enough love in this world,
not enough hope, not enough caring.
There's not enough joy in this world,
not enough smiles, not enough sharing.

​

Isn't it so strange? Isn't it a wonder?
It's all a big mistake, a tragic blunder.
The cost of our neglect could take us under
and cleave our very hearts and lives asunder.

​

From azure ocean's depth to mountain's girth
we hold this precious gem, our emerald earth.
Let's fill this world with laughter and with mirth
and recognize our only home's true worth.
