Poems
Earth is our Beautiful Home
Holds us like a mother
Natures us with care
Provides us with matter
Breaths into us the air
Trees that grow tall
Flowers big and small
Lovely birds that sing
Fit for a king
Ocean deep and blue
Fishes that give no clue
Clouds floating high
Like sheep gracing in skies
Deserts that are dry
Where every creature tumbles by
Rivers filled with water
Giving life to passers by
Snow white and beautiful
Makes us happy and cheerful
O earth our planet
You provide and protect
I love my planet earth
Only place where life thrives
Like mother with care
O beauty ever new.
Sr. Ancy Puthuva R.N.D.M
Mother Earth
We are embraced by our sweet home
Which we called it our common home
Our home so warm our home so wide
Embracing all throughout world wide
Its special gift to all of us
Given freely from up above.
We’re blessed to be under her care
All that we get be it food or air
Anytime we ask and turn to her
Freely she give to her children dear
Though she provides us what we need
Ungrateful we are and full of greed.
She sacrifice herself for us
That we may not hunger or thirst
She treats everyone equally
Hindus, Muslims or Christianity
In her there’s no partiality
To everyone she gives joyfully.
We are called to be co-creators
Not just only consumers
We need to care and nurture her
For she is like our own mother
The sacrifice for us she make
Let’s thank her and not make mistakes.
Tears rolling down from mother’s cheek
Painful to see the human’s greed
From dawn to dusk we depend on her
For food, clothing, water and shelter
Can we imagine without her
For a second, minute or an hour.
From birth to death we depend on you
Our love and sincere thanks to you
We’ll do our best all that we can
Protect you from all harm
Our only wish and prayer today
May mother earth evergreen stay.
