Bright blues bleed from skies, no longer compared to human eyes.
Vibrant leaves flourish from trees, not poisoned by machinery.
The Earth stands still, free of pain, no smoky air or acid rain.
the trees grow tall to kiss the clouds, with no one here to chop them down.
No more wars, no more fear, if humanity just wasn't here.
