Wondrous Things

When people think

Of pretty things

They think up

Wondrous things

When the sky

Dips into

An orange glow

And the leaves fall

In the air they flow

The winter snow

Bathes a white

glow

It's a beautiful thing

A pretty thing

The world is so precious Yet we break it so

We fill the air

With ash and smoke

Oh why do we ruin Something so

Special?

Why do the birds

Go on singing

And flying as high

As the clouds?

Why does the water Remain so blue

Harboring something

so very new? We fill the earth

With trash and junk

Why do humans

Have so much gunk?

The world is so precious Yet we break it so

We fill the air

With ash and smoke

Oh why do we ruin Something so

Special?

Let's take a moment Remember the days

When the air

Was fresh and clean

Let's take a chance To go back again

Try one more time

Don't ruin something

So

Special

Why does the sun

Go on shining?

Bathing the earth

in a warm glow

Don't they know

It's the end of the world Because we couldn't keep it so

The world is so precious Yet we break it so

We fill the air

With ash and smoke

Oh why do we ruin Something so

Special? (so special)

(Oh,

why...)
