“When Mother Earth Forgets Us” is a poignant poem that explores humanity’s strained relationship with nature. Through vivid imagery and emotional depth, it imagines a world where Earth, exhausted by our neglect, begins to withdraw. The poem is both a warning and a call to action—urging us to listen, restore, and walk in harmony with the planet before it’s too late.
