The call of the wild
A symphony of life
Lost in golden sunsets: bewitched and beguiled
Elephants marching to an African beat
Sun bronzed land throbbing beneath their feet
Gentle rumbles vibrating on the breeze
These magnificent giants communicating with ease
Creamy tusks with life do glow
A treasure that nature on them did bestow
Elephant’s ivory more valuable than gold
Unquenchable greed in man does unfold
Elephants are riches we cannot replace
The essence of the elephant we must embrace
They have nowhere to run and no place to hide
Africa’s giants: Africa’s pride
We all belong to the earth, it’s not ours to possess
The tragedy of poaching, we need to address
Say no to ‘white gold’: respect these giants
Stand tall: act with compliance
The harsh and beautiful African land
Empty without elephants: become one voice
Take a stand
You manage to find words to describe how so many of us feel in our hearts……thank you!!!!
We do all feel like this…dont we? A magical poem capturing the essence of the elephant! The african beat would be no more without these beautiful creatures! Thankyou x
