Gone are the Birds
Gone are the birds
Soaring across the sky
Gone is the placid sound
Of delicate wings stretched to fly
No more will search
For seeds in a city park,
Or perch on fire hydrants,
No more that scientists can mark.
No more gulls will be found by the sea,
For they have been relieved of the world
They had tried to flee.
Although we may say
their demise is nature’s way,
We must face the dawn,
That more species will follow along,
And mankind will soon have ended their stay.
