A World Without Bushes And Trees

'Twould not be a nice World to live in a World without bushes and trees With the strong stench of pollution blowing in the breeze Without natural windbreaks from the gale force wind And no place to shelter for the hairy and the feathered kind. In a World without bushes and trees there would not be songbirds to sing And as far as Nature goes we would have a silent Spring In a World of many Developers and too few who for our natural environment care Many species of Wildlife are in danger of extinction or rare. A World without bushes and trees is not a nice thought at all No green woods of Spring and Summer no brown leaves of Fall No fruit for to eat in a World ravaged by drought With the spectre of hunger ever lurking about. Our thanks to the Greenies for standing in the Developers way Without them we would have a World without flora or fauna today And the thought of such even does seem hard to bear So three rousing cheers for the environmentally aware.
