An Activity for Today: O Dear Earth: A Poem Dedicated to International Peace Day and Earth!

On the international Peace Day the following poem is a human cry on behalf of our earth. The problems on earth from global warming, greenhouse effect, pollution and so many others can give us the feelings that earth needs care as we, the humans do.

"O Dear Earth"

O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
Your love is
Beyond our appreciation and imaginations,
Human is created
On and from your dust!
Human is living on you
It is glory to your dust
He or she will die
On and will be your dust!
O Dear Earth! You are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
You are shelter for the living
You are grave for the dead,
You are food for the hungry,
You are water for the thirsty,
You are clothes for the shamed,
You are mother for the humans,
You are heaven for the wise,
You are home for the visitor.
O Dear Earth! You are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
You love wicked and good alike,
We are you friendly enemies,
We dig you and would you,
We bomb you and plunder you,
We use you and abuse you,
Yet, you still love us as before
We always praise you for this.
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
You bear the heat,
You hear the thunders,
You see the explosions,
You feel the pains,
You eat the poison,
Like a dog,
You smell the danger on you, but you do not forsake us.
O Dear Earth! You Are wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
We hear you crying,
We hear you weeping,
We hear you keeping
All the pains
In your heart,
We know you still want to be silent,
Alas! Your silent voice is
More than a painful storm,
O Dear Earth! You are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
Forgive us, we are
Living on you
Like others,
However, it is our promise
That we shall save you,
Please, do not think that
There is no one
For you,
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
Do not think
That we shall die
Like others,
We shall save you even if we die,
It is our promise
That our souls will
Not leave you until
You are saved and restored.
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
Human divides you and
Call you by different names,
You weep for that
Yet, you do not speak for that,
Adam and Eve weep everyday
When they see you from heaven,
Their tears are falling on you,
Behold! There are many, who can see.
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
We are free from pride,
Wow, we are proud of being your children,
You are free from greed,
Wow, you are our greed
You are free from ego,
Wow, your ego is ours,
We may have nothing to give you,
Wow, we are happy, you are ours,
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
We are helpless to help you,
Still, our love will serve you,
Since God knows our love for you,
He will make you
The greatest among stars,
He will make you
The happiest among stars,
He has listened from his throne.
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
Forgive all those,
Who divide you and
Call you by
Names of nations,
Alas, they call themselves nationalists
Yet, they do not serve you,
Forgive both the wise and the foolish,
For they are innocent to their duty,
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
You know us, the humans,
We have not created you,
You know us the, humans
We cannot destroy you,
You know us, the humans
We cannot command the death and life,
You know us the, humans
We are just creating the pollution for our own destruction.
O Dear Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
Your history is deeper than sea,
Ours, the human’s is
Lesser than a drop of the sea,
You have always produced
Your lovers and children,
Call them not to help you but to save humans,
Hopeful Bhagouauty seeks this.
O Earth! You Are Wonderful,
Your gratitude is
Beyond our speeches and written words,
Our sigh is a cry for you.
