This is a poem I did when we had to write about any object using personification in writing.
The Earth’s Story
I’ve been around for donkeys, even before they were here,
I’m the oldest of everything from cats and dogs to deer!
It was nothing but fun when the animals arrived,
but with dinos and humans, I almost died,
For example, a story for you,
After that, the humans got smarter too,
They started building, cutting my trees,
I had enough so I made it all freeze,
So yes, I did, the ice age I made,
But it soon melted quick with the sun and no shade,
Lets skip a lot, 65 million years ahead,
When they still cut my trees and made paper to shred!
Factories, pollution and all this on me,
Do the humans ever think I have feelings, you see,
My lungs are getting injured, slowly day by day
I fear that soon my whole body will decay,
I hope this will change in the future, I do,
And its not just for me, you live on me too!
Now heed this saying, this call alas,
For you may end up wishing the past,
Or even a better future you’ll see,
A future for only the humans and me.
