Rebel Without a Cause " Reborn "

Scots teenager Air gun Rabbits and Ducks Gunned down for the fun Then there came a day When this boy and gun No longer desired This type of fun A programme he watched On a TV channel A guy called Attenborough Truth, no flannel His care for the animals Left me ashamed Of all the Ducks and Rabbits I injured and maimed He opened my eyes In such a way I can't kill a fly Not even with spray And over the years And the places he's been What he has brought me To my Television screen Madagascar Lemurs Yaks from Nepal Amazing Amazonia Glorious them all My respect for him Prompted me Two lines in my poem " My Dinner Table " for thee There are not many people I crave to meet But this Gentleman Attenborough I'll shake his hand as we greet " Honoured to be in Christopher Higgins contest "
