Our planet has a consciousness

What if...

Our planet has a consciousness, 

that moves with a purpose,

in every rotation, and circles,

through the orbit around the sun.

Every life that ever existed,

through million years of evolution, 

have come with an expiry date,

determined by their actions. 

What if...

It observes and determines,

the impact of our actions,

the prospects of various elements, 

that governs the functioning of its essence.

And when, life overstays its residence, 

it creates scenarios, and situations, 

through ecological or biological calamities, 

that would bring an eventual extinction. 

What if,

The time period of survival depends,

on the pressure, many species brings,

to the limits of our planet's tolerance,

forcing it to put a plan in motion.

Which would comes in different phases,

floods, droughts, or ash from volcanic eruptions,

extremes of weather or bringing ice age,

and now, wars and nuclear weapons. 

What if,

We still have a choice,

to be able to make needed changes,

like the period of previous lifeforms,

lengthen our time through coexistence.

For, we have the awareness of the universe, 

with an ability to make intelligent decisions,

as long as we heed to nature's voice,

we still have plenty of opportunities...

To make progression.
