TIME TO REFLECT





































          We each have a voice and life, it is how we use     is now left with disease and tragedy.
          them not how we might!                              The sound of the harsh times ahead
                                                              resonates from somewhere deep within.
          Of all the planets, the Earth is extraordinary,
          The diversity of life makes it worth living.        It is a momentous situation for us to combat,
          It’s you and me, inordinately in greed,             So let’s forget the boundaries between you and me
          Taking care of this planet                          And heal the habitat
          has become the last of our priorities.              Heal the habitat!


          What did the tree do to you?                        AASTHA gARg
          That you heartlessly chopped,                       10-B
          Maybe oxygen in cylinders
          is what you deserved.


          You took it all with brute force
          Mined for the gold, not concerned about the cost.
          Is it indispensable to have that designer shed?
          Imagine what Earth will look like
          When all of the wildlife is dead


          Water running unnecessarily in the sink,
          Leaving our future on the brink.
          Throwing trash all over the place,
          We only think about the human race.


          Once a planet teeming with magic
