Koalas in the trees

The day shone bright
with no fear in sight
The wind whistles in the breeze
As I lay sleepy in the trees
But there's a sound a mysterious sound
Suddenly there is panic in the air animals are screaming and fleeing
Machines as loud as a lion’s roar
Cutting down our trees
As we flee, they show no mercy
Dirt sprays in our eyes and saw dust flies all around
I slowly fall to the ground
I thought it was all over me
Big metal machines cutting down every last tree
The smell of sawdust filled the air Pieces of bark are going everywhere
But I slowly rise forced to keep moving
I have to leave everything behind my memories, my life, my home
Tears fill my eyes as I make it two the road
But what do I do
Do I cross the busy road or do I stay where the forest is no more
I don’t know?
