Bobby Koala

Bobby Koala walked through the beautiful scenery
Stumbling across a juicy eucalyptus leaf
Eating it in a jiffy
While stepping on something very squishy
Climbing up his favourite tree
Then saying, “Hi!” to Ben the Bee
Oh it was a beautiful day
In every single way
Like it was made only to be great
Then from the corner of his eye
He spotted something red and blazing
Engulfing everything, like a red-hot tsunami
He had to run, as fast as he could
Through all the burning wood
He ran and ran until he could not
All the trees were left to rot
Staring into his burnt-out home
There was nowhere left for him to roam
Was mother nature meant to be pushed around?
Leaving treasured remains on the blackened ground.
