Poem Artwork

‘Where is the rain?’
Birds say to the sky
‘You seem to have abandoned us.
In dry skies we often fly’

'Where are our trees?’
Koalas have been brought to the ground
For the precious ones still remaining
Only very rare habitat can be found

‘Where are our food and waterholes?’
The animals search burnt turf
Kangaroos and wallabies bounce near and far
Every critter trying to quench their thirst

‘We haven’t much room to swim in’
The platypus says to the fish
We really want to go on living
Australian wildlife’s greatest wish

I'm glad that finally, some downpour of rain has hit Australia, ending the seemingly neverending bushfires. So sorry for those that have lost their lives - both humans and the little animals.

Even if they survived, and it is estimated that 1 billion animals, not including birds, reptiles and insects have already died. With the remaining habitat badly damaged or destroyed altogether, it will take a few years for the habitat to return and for the remaining animals to reproduce enough to recover some of what is lost.

The trouble is, drought and fires of this magnitude may continue for a very long time into the future even with drastic measures taken to stop fossil fuel emissions today.

Touching and heartbreaking, and ditto what Edward said. I wish for wisdom and bravery in our leaders to tackle climate change.

To all the climate deniers: This is what happens when we pollute the atmosphere with carbon dioxide levels beyond scientific cautions. Stop denying what your eyes can see! It is only going to get worse. Look at the devastation! Look at the beautiful creatures that are falling victim to our folly. Where is your humanity? Where is your concern for all life forms? Where is your backbone to help bring about change?

A major concern, nowadays, especially with the wildfires plaguing the nation.

Terrorforming Your Environment by RickthePoetWarrior

Never to leave well enough alone our attempts at managing our society, culture, and environment are recycled, re-used, and just generally regurgitated
