Marvin Moose

You look like a silly old moose With those antlers up high on your head Your name wouldn't be Mickey, would it? Oh it's Marvin! I like Mickey instead Well Marvin Moose, how are the forests? Are we finally turning it around? Will earth survive the pollution and garbage? Is it too late to break new ground? When man's existence is seriously threatened He usually comes through in a pinch Have faith in the strength of the human spirit Even though it's not a lead pipe cinch Future generations will be eternally grateful That we've made this gigantic effort To save the world from ecological disaster So they'll inherit a world of new sort You look like a silly old moose, my friend But at least you'll still have a home to live in With ours and the help of dear Mother Nature The future looks bright for our kin!

Hello Jack, As always this is a whimsical yet profound reflection on our relationship with nature and our responsibility to protect it. Through playful imagery and poignant questions, you highlight the urgency of environmental conservation. Your optimism and faith in humanity's ability to enact positive change are both inspiring and reassuring. I love how your poem serves as a gentle reminder that each of us has a role to play in preserving our planet for future generations. - Blessings, Daniel

such an uplifting poem giving hope to Marvin Moose, Mother Nature, and future generations...I believe humankind is turning a corner in terms of awareness and cause/effect of our global decisions impacting the environment. Perhaps Marvin should be an "activist" of sorts :-) Anyway, your skill in constructing rhymes along with a message is seen in this poem. Have a splendid day, Sara
