Due To Our Lust For Money

The beauty of Nature for all to enjoy Yet a beauty some people are happy to destroy Due to this need that is in us for financial gain Our craving for material success beyond me to explain. For to build a new factory in the industrial side of the town Twenty five mature monterey pine trees were cut down Their cone seeds a food source for yellow tail black cockatoos Due to our greed for money the birds have to lose. The World we live in with others we do share But due to habitat destruction some species of birds and animals rare The pathway to extinction for them we create This is not an achievement for to celebrate. Like her Seasons to life we come to and from go Yet so little about Nature we can claim to know Due to our lust for money born of our human greed For protection from extinction many creatures in need.
