Our Earth has lots of plants and trees

And monkeys and zebras and lots of bees

Many plateaus and mountains and oceans and plains

Islands and valleys and lions with manes

Clouds and sunshine and sometimes a rainbow

Thank you dear Earth for the soil in which seeds we sow

Thank you for letting us breathe in your air

Giving home to birds and butterflies and giraffes and bears

For protecting us from the rays of the sun

For letting us build our homes, thanks a ton

Helping us enjoy the summers and the winters

Being a wonderful home to beavers and tigers and otters

You have a strong pull of gravity 

Amazing natural beauty and incredible diversity 

You are the third planet from the Sun

The award of life you have won

You have glaciers and coral and the Northern Lights

It is so lovely lying down on you and see the stars at night

In your water there are many amazing things

You have enough gold to make a billion golden rings

You have the perfect position

To protect you is our mission
