I speak on behalf of the next generation, My sons and my daughters, their children to come, What will you leave them for their recreation? An oil slick, a pylon, an industrial slum? You plunder, you pillage, You tear and tunnel, Trees lying toppled, roots finger the sky Building a land for machines and computers In the name of progress the farms have to die . Fish in an ocean polluted and poisoned, The sand on the beaches Is stinking and black . You with your tankers, your banks and investments Say “Never worry the birds will come back” . When the last flower has dropped its last petal, When the last concrete is finally laid, The moon will shine cold on a nightmarish landscape, Your gift to our children the world which you’ve made . Leave them a flower, some grass and a hedgerow, A hill and a valley, a vew to the sea . These things are not yours to destroy as you want to, A gift given once for eternity . :thumbs: beetle	beetle (243)
