Sawn and Gone
Cutting into the rain forest
are the loggers with heavy machinery
their powerful saws
rip into the trees
tearing them down
one by one
they fall to the ground
leaving behind just a stump
no longer does the wildlife live here
their homes are gone
destroyed by man
for many years theses trees have stood
providing shelter and food for all
the rain forest was a haven for the wild life
but isn't anymore
now all there is
is emptiness
yet again
the balance of nature is upset
man lives in a selfish world
whilst nature lives in harmony and peace
