It is the law of Nature the strongest does survive <br />And on the flesh of their victims the predators do thrive <br />And her creatures like her Seasons to Nature come and go <br />And the more we learn of Nature the more our wonder of her grow <br />Us humans belong to Nature we think we own her Land <br />And the more we learn about her the less we know we understand <br />The strangeness of her nature her beauty in every flower <br />The fierceness of her anger before her humans cower, <br />Nature is our sole source of food yet we pollute her water and air <br />Due to our greed for the health of our Earth Mother we do not seem to care <br />And what we do to Nature to our own selves we do <br />And that applies to all of us to me as well as you <br />Only the strongest thrive in Nature but Nature outlives us all <br />From the World's largest mammal to the smallest of the small.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nature-outlives-us-all/
