Dear Earth,
I’ve done many bad stuff to you and will try my best to fix my mistakes. I will begin carpooling to school, plant more trees, and not buy plastic-packaged foods. I will also eat healthier from now on, so that I may not only help you but also myself. I hope you can accept my apology since I will try my best to live a life that is eco-friendly. This is also how I will try my best to help stop climate change.
Sincerely Qasim Sheikh
dear mother earth. I've hurt you and id like to apologize. You've given me everything I've ever desired. I had my house built on your very skin. I have found comfort in you and shade on sunny days
I Have slept on the grass you give and danced in the rain you let down
yet today I see you dying
I see your luscious surface cracked up and brown
I see you trees of shade burning by the day
and I think to myself. If I would pay back all that you have done for me
if I could pay back even an ounce of it
but I cant
but I will try
I will treat you better
I will love you and I will take care of you because you alone are my mother
you raised me and gave me water and shade and rain
I will water you as you watered me
and I grow trees on your surface as you raised me
and I will pray to go
to restore your beauty
so that one day my children can feel the love
of MOTHER EARTH
