The Future of Forests

Underneath, above, below

Deep green forests continue to grow

Under the stars on a summer night,

The future of forests seems so bright

With flowers crawling on their bark

Birds perch on the branches, a magpie, a lark.

Forests still thrive, with star after star,

A mass of green carpet stretches far.

The trees fall down and the land's cleared

The forest collapses, just as animals have feared

Their homes are cut down and get driven away

They don't get fixed, day after day.

When their homes get put up and back to full strength

Maybe all of our hearts will grow in length.

Trees fade away and appear back as brick

So we need to act more, and we need to act quick!
