A Sestina on old growth forests
Old growth forests are a sight to behold
Humans wiping them out makes me angry
Politicos who support this can go to Hell
Angel Oaks,giant cedars and Redwoods
These are some of my favoured trees, I say
General Sherman -a most ancient tree
Angel Oak boughs are coiled ,I love this tree
All the ancient trees ;divine to behold
Lay my ashes neath an Oak tree I say
Clear cut forrests they made me quite angry
Giant cedars ,grand -behold the Redwoods
Those who wreck ancient forests go to Hell
Ancient forests wrecked I'm angry as Hell
The huge red oak is one hell of a tree
Other beatific trees are the Redwoods
Angrboda ‘s tree -lovely to behold
Cutting these trees down-I'm bloody angry
Politicos should pay a price: I say
Old growth forests are a biome, I say
Those who destroy them are stupid as Hell
Lay waist to old growth forests?-I'm angry
I sat still under a huge cedar tree
Hike thru these forests a sight to behold
I wonder what critters live in Redwoods
I wish I can visit the grand Redwoods
I'm wheelchair bound do not know what to say
Walked thru a small old growth woods nice to behold
The woods were denuded of old trees,oh Hell
Old growth Cedars are one hell of a tree
Most of the old growth gone makes me angry
Logging roads in BC grave ,I’m angry
Love to muse beneath a pair of Redwoods
What type of vibe will I get from that tree?
Protest the harm of old growth woods; I say
If you don’t help out ,I'm angry as Hell
Clear cut woods from a plane -shock to behold
Envoi:
Burn old growth woods angry I say
Stop logging Redwoods ,no,oh Hell
An Angel oak tree I want to behold
