snowball is a wild soul
so are all the other cockies
fiercely intelligent characters
who can teach us a lot
they don't deserve to have their habitats
destroyed by us
neither do all the other animals
suffering the same fate
they are here for a reason
to teach us how to love

I ADORE Snowball. He's just feelin' da beat! I needed him this morning. Thanks for bringing some levity to the prompt - that is the challenge, as it can get discouraging, as you'll see from my poem. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteBirds most definitely have a song to sing.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right Rall. I do not see us, as the human species, learning, or even caring to learn, the lesson fast enough to avoid the collapse snd extinction of our species? Hope the hell I am wrong. People belittle the idea of love today.
ReplyDelete"To teach us love" if only more of us could truly learn...
ReplyDeleteAnimals do indeed teach us a lot and sadly we have so much more to learn if we hope to co-exist in peace.
ReplyDeleteNo creature deserves that fate.
