Recovery

Birds twitter, trees sway, the wildlife diverse, lovely right,

But there is something horrible in sight.

As the trees smash on the ground,

One by one they fall all around.

As the sun peeps out when the trees fall,

Just then the birds call.

As their home habitat crumbles away,

When the bulldozers finally go in their way.

How will we fix this they ask,

Recovery is the only task,

The community comes together with one goal,

To rebuild the forest and keep it under control.

They plant saplings and saplings seeds and seeds,

When after their effort they succeed.

It was never certain that they would be able to complete,

The saplings needed a certain amount of heat,

A specific amount of water to enlarge.

The people weren’t the ones in charge,

The trees are the ones that need to recover,

The trees are the ones that need to be discovered.
