A wonderland

They call it a winter wonderland
but do they misunderstand the true use of the motherland
the flakes fall with much passion and precision
lining the long trails and waving through the trees
rising at the crack of dawn to fly through the breeze
trudging through the powder of the backcountry to claim your first tracks
it seems easy though
gliding in the fluffy white slosh
but its slosh now not powder
the snow is melting far to quickly these days
will we be left with no prize on this mountain
animals loosing their homes to the target of our society
we're polluting our air and destroying our future
the once wonderland is now a neverland?
