Ordinary...

Ordinary people

Leading ordinary lives.

Ordinary husbands,

Married to ordinary wives.

Ordinary children,

Go to ordinary schools.

Ordinary families,

Follow ordinary rules.

And in an ordinary world,

Filled with ordinary stores,

Ordinary living has ruined,

Our mountains, trees and shores.

Ordinary use

Of ordinary things,

Extraordinary abuse

Of all natural things.

Unless we stop the cycle,

Of ordinary living,

The bounty of the land,

Will no longer be giving.

The ordinary things,

That we ordinarily see,

Will, in extraordinary fashion,

Forever cease to be.

And so, no longer ordinary,

We must do things differently,

And take extraordinary measures,

To save all that we see.

Ordinary rivers, and ordinary hills,

Ordinary oceans and ordinary trees,

Will become extraordinarily extinct,

If we continue doing as we please.
