Dedicated to all wildlife enthusiasts coming together across the globe to
stand
Thank you all.
As custodians of this beautiful earth…powerful in our stance
Fighting against extinction….still given the chance
Our lungs exhaling the cool London air
Our combined energy pulsating…as one we share
A passion for these animals and their untamed splendour ….which is ours to protect
Entwined together with nature…..a mutual respect
Across the globe united…an unstoppable force
Doing what is right by these animals
PEOPLE
It is a conscious choice
ARE YOU LISTENING?
DO YOU HEAR THEIR CRIES?
‘Why us?’ the matriarch pleads…sorrow clouding her wise old eyes
‘Is a tusk cursed head enough reason for elephants to die?’
Mystical ivory steeped in greed and fears
A fusion of genes spanning millions of years
Walking with balance and beauty…yet poached for their horn
These animals cruelly left….gasping for life….faces mutilated and torn
Consumers of Rhino horn…..hang your heads in shame
Your demand for rhino horn….inflicting excruciating pain
ARE YOU LISTENING?
A hauntingly lonely road of ghosts…a sea of empty space
Magnificent wild world…disappearing without a trace
PEOPLE
Listen in on their world hear their pleas
No to rhino horn and ivory….a moral decree
Be the change this world needs ….hold your heads high
An echo of harmony…thrown wide to the sky
Teach the children well…they are the future.

It was an honour and a privilege to stand in silence in Parliament Square on 7th October and remember the fallen – elephants, rhinos and rangers. Also to listen to the powerful speeches which followed.
Awe Jen! Beautiful and such a powerful message and yearning for this poaching to stop and these beautiful majestic animals to be able to roam free without being in danger from these hideous poachers !!
Well done x
