Give Life a Chance - Inspired By Taai Tekai

GIVE LIFE A CHANCE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ O the golden daffodil's, Wadsworth's long gone choice. In springtime, delighted by the sun, they danced. To the music of a breeze, natures melodic, soothing voice. Fear now the springtime, fickle, oh if it was but just a glance? Climate warming, scented flowers lost, daffodils' can't rejoice. Hark! Nature begging! Stop polluting, give life, all life a chance!

Thanks Tom, What I also find is t he folk on street, (the majority of them), haven't got a clue, and some just don't want to know. Those that do have the attitude of what can we do about it. I, of course, do my best to explain but, as a rule of thumb what I get back is, "What difference will one person, one tree, etc."! You get the gist, but I won't give up, and I am often rewarded when the doubters have be come council clouters, sadly usually after an event of habitat destruction, or the like. The only consolation is, (and then it is only a chance), is that they are making other people aware of their follies, re nature's mismanagement. The fight goes on! Best wishes... Mick

I'm sure Wordsworth would turn in his grave if he could see the destruction on earth caused by man's selfishness:-( hugs jan xx
