In The Forest

In the forest everywhere you look is stunningly beautiful

With magical flora and fauna all around

Flowers dance with a smile and woodpeckers in trees sing

As moose and deer prance cheerfully on the ground

In the forest animals love to come out at night

Owls soar through the sky like a plane

Foxes race faster than a bullet for their food

Whilst badgers hide in their cosy burrows to escape the deafening rain

In the forest life sound idyllic,

But let us not forget predator vs prey

Hungry hawks swoop from above, vigilant wolves ready to pounce

As defenceless animals play possum where they lay

But this is phenomena is not the worst aspect of nature

But rather climate change, which must come to a stop

Bushfires are detrimental to our nature and wildlife

A red, scorching hand catching animals’ dead bodies as they drop

Innocent creatures are coming to harm for the things that we’ve done

And bushfires are only one part of this sorrowful pain

Like a pandemic to the world this problem needs urgent help

But none has come, and the Earth is dying. When will civilisation finally take the blame?
