Now more than ever
We truly are all in this together.
To survive and thrive on this planet we share
We must all work together and do our share
To protect this earth which gives us life
To create peace here, rather than strife.
May we each do our part
And give to this world (our home) our hearts.
For healing and well being for us all, please pray....
To you and yours... HAPPY EARTH DAY!

07/02/2021Dear JD, every day should be Earth Day, it's a joy to read this, we can only hope that people will start to respect earth more after reading these thoughts. If we share what we know with the young, hopefully it will become natural to then take greater care of our planet. Thank you. There is certainly wisdom to be shared here.

03/29/2021True, a greater appreciation of Earth is definitely needed. Damaging the earth is like a crew of a spaceship damaging the ship they depend on for survival. I would not blame extraterrestrial aliens for considering such an activity evidence of human innate insanity.

02/11/2021Hi again, Jd, I'll be posting about climate issues soon. At the moment I'm finishing the 2nd. and 3rd. parts of my story Tanya. Hope to post them tomorrow.
Will email you about this matter. Thank you for everything.

02/10/2021I appreciate your writing very much, Jd. You're a lover of Nature and have shared it in a poem for all of us. I see you wrote it on Earth Day! I love all of nature and feel devastated at what is going on. Perhaps I'll post some short piece of mine about these climate issues. All the best, Jd.

05/16/2020Amazing poem. It gives us an important message. When I read the poem i remembered the song 'Different World' by Alan Walker and it's lyrics-
"We've been fighting our demons just to stay afloat,
Been building our castle just to watch it fall,
Been running forever just to end up here,
Once more..."
If you've not heard the song then you should hear it and I bet you'll like it!

04/28/2020Yes indeed Jd. Today, in England, we observed a one minute silence for all those care workers in the National Health who
died. The tragedy of all this is heart breaking.
Wishing you and all members of this super site, safe life.

04/28/2020Heartbreaking indeed, for so many. The loss of so many frontline workers, especially those who we need to care for us and who do so selflessly, is heartbreaking and horrifying. I hope and pray we do not lose any more wonderful people to this awful virus. Stay safe and well, Jane.

04/24/2020Awesome JD. Happy Earth day to you.
Never before has the entire human race been so in sync. Hopefully being all in the same boat together the world will be a different, more peaceful place.

04/27/2020Thanks Gail! I sure hope so too. Things sure don't seem to be headed in that better direction right now though, but we can sure hope and pray they will. Take care....

04/22/2020Thanks, Jason! : )
I don't consider myself a writer, but once in a while I like to put together something that seems 'fitting'.
I wish that we as a species could learn to take better care of this planet so that it will take better care of us.
take care
