Save us

Save us the Socket woods chant.
Deer, developers, deforestation are our biggest threat
Deer slip under the radar at night they wreck our seedlings, saplings and seeds
Only caring about themselves.
Developers only see houses wherever there is a natural forest,
all they care about is making money,
we see a forest of socket wood they see money and big apartment blocks
they put in trees
Just to pass regulation only later to whipper-snip them.
Deforestation is a developer's friend
supplies them with timber and areas to build
grey dull houses with no greenery.
Save us the Sublime Point Pomaderis screams.
Is the only place we’re safe in round 170ml pots in a botanic garden plant bank?
Or to have our seed collected and grown to give them the best chance of survival inside a council nursery green house?
our status drops down from Least concern to extinct!
the Bombodary Zeiria yells
Why not save us?
