CRY OF THE WILD
every day animals lose their habitat
and i know that many people care
but so often, we just look away
and pretend a problem is not there

they lose their habitat due to destruction
buildings and homes go left and right.
people don’t think about the animals
that run away with so much fright

they lose their habitat due to pollution
people throwing trash all over the place
pouring chemicals into the waters
thinking of only the human race

the earth is a beautiful place
it belongs to all creatures great and small,
but it is man’s responsibility and duty
to keep it clean and safe for all.
