For tomorrow's celebration of earth day!

To this day, whether it is for the song itself or Michael Jackson's voice, I get shivers down my spine when I hear the "Earth Song" the amazing voice and the powerful images in the video, aside from the spectacular yet harsh lyrics are the perfect combination for success. And, even more so, in the whole context of the ongoing war and lack of interest in preserving everything nature gives us.

What about sunrise? What about rain? What about all the things That you said we were to gain?

What about killing fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine?

Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth, these weeping shores?

What have we've done to the world?
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son?

What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine?

Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth, these weeping shores?

I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far

Hey, what about yesterday?
(What about us?)
What about the seas?
(What about us?)
The heavens are falling down
(What about us?)
I can't even breathe
(What about us?)
What about Africans?
(What about us?)
I ain't even through
(What about us?)
What about nature's worth?
(Ooh, ooh)
It's our planet's womb
(What about us?)

What about animals?
(What about it?)
Turned kingdom to dust
(What about us?)
What about elephants?
(What about us?)
Have we lost their trust?
(What about us?)
What about crying whales?
(What about us?)
Ravaging the seas?
(What about us?)
What about forest trails?
(Ooh, ooh)
Burnt, despite our pleas
(What about us?)

What about the holy land?
(What about it?)
Torn apart by creed?
(What about us?)
What about the common man?
(What about us?)
Can't we set them free?
(What about us?)
What about children dying?
(What about us?)
Can't you hear them cry?
(What about us?)
Where did we go wrong?
(Ooh, ooh)
Someone tell me why
(What about us?)

What about baby boy?
(What about it?)
What about the days?
(What about us?)
What about all their joy?
(What about us?)
What about the man?
(What about us?)
What about the crying man?
(What about us?)
What about Abraham?
(What about us?)
What about death again?
(Ooh, ooh)
Do we give a damn?

Often we underestimate and ignore the greatness of mother earth, all of its beauty, and the enormous amount of resources it offers us, which we take for granted. On this day, I'd wish more people would care more, enjoy more and appreciate more.

Views from above of the Confluence of Caroni and Orinoco River. Because of their chemical composition, this two rivers met but do not mix, that's something incredible only mother nature is able to do in such a magestic way.

Let's preserve this world so our children can also be whitnesses of it's wonders!
