What we want
What we want
Is not hard to say
It is merely hard to do.
We want the world
To stay green,
Full of animals
That are free
And skies that are blue.
We want the water clear
And trees to wave
In the breeze;
Tigers and rhinos
Running through the long grass
As they used to do.
It’s not too much to want
In a world so big
Is it?

What we want
It seems that I want the impossible. I want the world.
I want life to flourish.
I want the wild creatures free and running through the wilderness.
I want the space for every type of life to flourish.
There’s room enough.
I’m not alone.
Lots of us want the same thing.
I am told it is too much to ask for.
People are more important.
No they are not.
I do not believe they are.
The ants and bees are as important. There should be room for the chimpanzees.
I do not believe it is impossible.
If we have the intelligence we can manage our numbers, manage the land, and leave room enough foe everything.
