Indoor bowls club - Sussex Indoor Bowls

A POEM FOR OUR TIME.

20th May 2020

AS HUMANS GO INTO HIDING BIRDS COMEBACK OUT GLIDING
BACK TO EARTH AND THEIR RIGHTFUL HOME
BACK TO THE LAND WHICH HUMANS HAD CLAIMED AS THEIR OWN
THEY BUILT UP CITYS AND CRAFTED HOMES
WANTING MORE BUILDINGS TO CALL THEIR OWN
THEY LAUGHED OVER THE COST
BUT NOT RECOGNISING WHAT THEY HAD LOST
ALL THEY CARED ABOUT WAS THE MONEY
BUT TO THE ANIMALS THIS WASN’T FUNNY, SPECIES DIED AND HUMANS THRIVED.

BUT THEN ONE DAY A VIRUS WAS RELEASED AND THE HUMAN POPULATION DECREASED
ANIMALS SHOWED THEMSELVES ONCE MORE
