This is an environmental poem the 'she' in the poem is Mother Nature displaying how we are killing the earth for our own greed.

She watches above us
Cries tears of sorrow
There will no more
Tomorrow

Every piece of litter
A bullet to her head
What should we have done
Instead?

War and Revenge
Human creations
Only make more
Frustration

Why do we kill?
When we can love
All we have done is
Get rid of

Take nothing but pictures.
Leave nothing but footprints.
Kill nothing but time.

A hero isn’t defined by winning. Loads of heroes die in the effort. Most of them never get any recognition. No, a hero is just somebody who does the right thing when it would be far, far easier to do nothing.

yeah I love it great theme.
I liked the way you wrote that peice at the start
explaining what you meant by 'she', but I think maybe
that could have gone at the end to build up the readers
curiousity.
I really liked this.

Keep Writing

Hello,
I doubt you will take the time to look at this signature, you are all busy people and I respect that, but if you do know this. Every bit of criticism on my writing has helped and every bit of advice you have given me has also helped. So thank you, for everything.
