The light, twinkling from the stars  

The sun glistening off of the sea giving a sense of warmth 

The trees swaying from side to side 

The aroma of the warm salt water and sandy beaches

The lakes filled with healthy fish 

The forests with animals

The mountains piled high with snow 

This is my home.

The cars that fill up streets like the pollution that they create  

The grey smoke that wraps the world in a dark box 

The oil spilled in oceans that blackens the water  

The fires that spread around the world like a deadly disease 

The animals, that have been hunted to extinction

The water from the rivers that smells like chemicals 

The light pollution that takes away the sight of stars

This is my home .

The killings every night on the news like it is a broadcasted show at 8 pm 

The news is dark like the topics they broadcast.

The diseases that run rampid throughout the world 

The poor and hungry still poor and hungry  

The people that turn their back to it all

This is my home.
