Chernobyl’s zone Wolves and wildlife

Born in a zone

where fallout is rife

where no human dares

to take on the strife

of poisonous soil

of nuclear air

of radioactive

woe everywhere

in these wild reaches

the wild life are born

they live and they die

clearly they are torn

between life expectancy

and the great will

of Nature to prosper

despite man’s  sick spill

1986 saw the great meltdown

the forests the marshes

in it did drown

400 hiroshima’s

took the full force

400,000 souls moved

yes of course

contamination it spread far and wide

but what of the wildlife

living inside

the great exclusion zone

where do they go

Chernobyl’s wolves

their numbers grow

denser and denser

seemingly they

are coping without man

to hunt them today

11,000 sq miles

where no man can go

and this great wilderness

begins to show

the plants they are out there

the trees out there too

and the wildlife still out there

concomitant, view

all seems the same

just no man dares to be

anywhere unless protected

for he

will realize rapidly inside the zone

contamination exists

worse than was known

but the wild life exists

in its cosmic attire

it lives and its dies

in the heat of the fire

despite the vile rain

and the evils and sin

still they live peacefully

all labouring

under no misapprehensions

instinctively they

live out their lives

in the glare of dismay

they have not an inkling

of what was before

just the absence of man

and a life to adore

perhaps Mother Nature

had plans for her brood

perhaps she can help them

and possibly allude

to a new way of thinking

a new way of life

creating  a balance

out of what was strife

a coming together of species

and we

see a natural re wilding

a posture that be

able to withstand the

influence we

know to be harmful
