The Bald Eagle

Bald Eagle in the sky.
Soaring oh so high.
As I watch the Eagle fly;
Brings a teardrop to my eye.
Bald Eagle diving super fast
Endangered species of the past.
Hunting grounds large and vast;
Bunny rabbit breathes it's last.
Bald Eagle now is quite content.
His nest now;dead rabbit scent.
Three baby eaglets:Magnificent!
Endangered no more,Eagle's intent.
Bald Eagle and eaglets fall asleep.
You hear no awws,you hear no peep.
On a mountainside,rocky and steep.
Endangered species never weep.
Soon ALL species will come back.
The ecosystem on the right track.
Without MAN it may stay intact.

I have to say that man has hurt and man has helped the wild life. Man is trying to reestablish what was lost. All God's creatures are magnificent. Keep writing. You have soup mail. Sara
