Digital Age
Our feats of technology are incredible
Some of them even seem edible
We can examine the stars
And drive gigantic cars
When a friend is in China
You can skype her from Carolina
We can do virtual tennis
When on vacation in Venice
So if our brains have evolved
Why haven’t we solved
The issues that effect
But do not protect
Our wondrous earth
Don’t you think it is worth
Putting in more labor
And so you can savor
The beneficial results
Don’t just leave it for the adults
For our world is dying
And few are crying
For the loss of life
And on the blade of a knife
Hangs the survival
And perhaps the revival
Of an animal and plant
Because we say we can’t
But really we can
If only we plan
You must take a stand
To save our great land
Because after all
There’s no time to stall
For we do evolve
And we can solve
The problems that riddle our earth
