Price of Extinction

I dedicate this to all the big money men
lovers of money, pound, dollar and yen

Without birds there would be no flowers or trees
without flowers and trees there wouldn’t be any bees
without bees there wouldn’t be any honey
all life would be extinct now isn’t that funny.

winters will still be cold, summers will still be sunny 
just one thing there’s nowhere to spend your money.

I'm in the same book. Rare birds we appear to be.

Thank you so much Maureen, we know the problems and we know how to solve them, perhaps financial wealth is more important? not in my book! thanks again for your support and encouragement my dear friend. :))
