Here is what she wrote:
Today and everyday, I am grateful.
For the sunrise and the sunset,
For the forest full of trees,
The animals, the birds,
The lakes, rivers and seas,
I’m grateful for all we’ve built,
Our bridges and our streets,
I am grateful for the love that binds us and the wind that sometimes knocks us off our feet,
In these uncertain times, I feel grateful for those who put themselves in danger for us,
Our saviours, the world’s warriors!
Today and everyday,
I promise to care for our planet and all it has to offer,
I promise to value our home by doing better
I choose to celebrate earth day
Today and every single day
Though COVID-19 lockdown has forced humans worldwide to stay indoors, it has definitely allowed nature to breathe freely once again. We hope that when this end, we come out as more learned, wiser beings and appreciate the wonderful planet that we have been blessed with.
