BACK TO NATURE

Deep down in the darkest dungeon    
hide the humans deprive of death    
Afraid to see the light    
and inhale toxic filth—    
by-products of his own folly  
   
Down the drain drowns  
the hope of youth’s future glory  
because darkness robs their crowns  
If today we don’t act sensibly,  
tomorrow’s misery upon us will frown  
   
In order to move forward    
take two steps backward    
Go back into the woods    
where love lies in harmony    
with nature’s tranquility    
Learn again to live with nature    
and be one with its embrace    
   
Back to nature where playful fairies live
to nurture the dreams and keep them alive,
away from the city screams—drowned in misery
Fireflies light the hidden path towards serenity
when dusk approaches another life’s mystery
It’s never too late to heal mother Earth,
as long as we are committed to heal ourselves first!
