DAre you aware of what's about you?
Things that others barely Asee.
AThat moss is not green, but blue
AThat sprout at your feet, not a weed, but a Dtree
DI'm a forester, Lover of the land
Custodian of wildlife, and the A/ G? trees ******
AHeart pulled tight like rubber band
APlease, Oh God, give us direction, Dplease.
DNever the time to say my thoughts
About the land, and its Aabuse
ATwilight time is here, and I'm taught
AModern day farming, what a Druse.
DLord (farmers) let some fields lay fallow
This old ground is wearing- Aout
AThose tillers, their hearts are shallow
AWake them God, I don't have the Dclout
DThe wild ones watch from their shrinking cover
With bleeding eyes from choking stench and heavy Adust
AShadows lengthen, noises fade, mist begins to hover
ACrews retreat; they will be back, they Dmust
DNever mind costs are high, and prices low
That this land was not meant to Gfarm
ATrees and wildlife?they must go
AIf this is progress?then look out hDarm.
