Before we parish with those that we kill


Hush, listen…
Such peace and serenity
Chirping of the little sparrows
Whistling of the crickets low
Rippling of the waters flow
Music to our human soul
Man animal and plant united as one

But, look…
No sparrows to chirp and sing
No crickets to amuse and swing
Poor fishes all dead and afloat
Over rivers and seas polluted
Nature once pretty and clean
Now ravaged by man so mean

So, stop!
Fell not the trees but let them live
Let the rivers flow and the seas breathe
Halt destruction preserve and conserve
For all to live clean water’s imperative
Clean up your act please if you will
Before we parish with those that we kill
