If I were you, <br /> I will stop for once and ponder: <br /> Where am I? Where am I going? <br /> What am I taking away? <br /> What am I bequeathing to posterity? <br /> Is your legacy a pit of fire? <br /> Is your legacy a scorched earth? <br /> Is your legacy an inhospitable globe? <br /> Is your legacy a barren planet? <br /> Is your legacy a great Bang? <br /> <br /> Then let it be known that <br /> People and nations come and go <br /> But nature and God live forever. <br /> The will of God reigns supreme: <br /> ‘Neither will I ever destroy the world <br /> With brimstone nor with flood waters' <br /> <br /> If you do what God disallows, <br /> You will have yourself to blame. <br /> You may get temporary satisfaction <br /> But after you, a thousand years <br /> Will be a short period for God <br /> To regenerate the earth with all its splendour <br /> God's will shall be done according to His Word<br /><br />Njousi Abang<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/stop-environmental-degradation/
