Vanished
Facing global warming and climate change,
many species will vanish from the Earth.
Most don't seem concerned, and I find that strange;
being tethered to this planet from birth.
Whales may never swim our oceans again;
reefs are dying and may never return.
And we will lose vital links in life's chain
when the glaciers melt, and the forests burn.
Tigers, jaguars, panthers, and leopards;
all endangered cats will soon disappear.
They'll vanish, killed by ranchers and shepherds;
their numbers are decreasing every year.
In seas where bottom trawlers weren't banished,
Nature, like a magician, has vanished.
