Once upon a time
humans had respect
and honoured all life
of the land we now reject.
We have lost our perspective
and love for Mother Earth
humankind is in desperate need
of a humble rebirth.

Love your poem Brenda. It’s sad that it is so true.
Thanks for associating my “One World” illustration with your poem.
Ever hopeful for positive changes,
Rachel
Thank you very much for your compliment Rachel and for allowing me to use your beautiful artwork which inspired my poem. In many ways we do unfortunately, live in a sad world where ‘respect’ has largely disappeared :(
