When I see the world evolving <br />turning into something new <br />and I'm sure my heart is calling <br />wishing I could be with you <br />well it makes me sad to realise <br />you can't have everything <br />when you know that one day you <br />will never hear the blue whale sing <br /> <br />A woman filters water <br />from a pool in Africa <br />makes me wonder why humanity <br />is reaching for the stars <br />and I would love to touch you <br />smell the sweetness of your hair <br />before the forest of the Amazon <br />completely disappears <br /> <br />The cost of making plastic bags <br />and things we throw away <br />could save another species <br />from extinction so they say <br />and yes you know I love you <br />like my love of everything <br />and it breaks my heart that <br />someday we won't hear the blue whale sing.<br /><br />Charles M.
