Sinking Feeling

mother’s milk all gone 
 starved polar bear cubs alone
       faint guttural drones

This is so sad but true. We are losing many endangered species due to loss of habitat or changes to habitat like the Manatee. Thank you for bringing awareness to those who are unaware. Blessings xxoo

Thank you so much for stopping by Connie, it really is a bleak picture for so many creatures on this planet, no doubt humanity is responsible for most of it, cheers David

Hard to see them around Tom in 50 years time, unless it’s in captivity, cheers David
