Behold the timeless forest
\nGreat drama we may see
\nThe players clad in their own skins
\nComing out to be
\nThemselves among the sentinels
\nThe dancing spirits who
\nShake their leaves like tambourines
\nTo the beat thats often true<\/p>\n
There stand the graceful ladies
\nTheir silvery bark appealing
\nThey often dance in the chorus line
\nTheir autumn leaves revealing
\nA golden flash of yellow
\nA soiree in the sun
\nDappled alongside jack frost
\nWhose stippling can stun<\/p>\n
The animals are present
\nThe audience the wise
\nWatching from the shadows
\nWith their bright and wise young eyes
\nWith MRS May now laying down the law
\nAnd may repeal
\nThe law against hunting the fox
\nWhich does niw seem quite real<\/p>\n
The badgers too are feeling it
\nDiwntridden everywhere
\nMurdered by the sicko farmers
\nBoosting their despair
\nAccusations flying if causing the TB
\nIn cattle all this prattle
\nStartles constantly<\/p>\n
The wild folk seek some settlement
\nIt really isnt fair
\nThe lives are harsh by all accounts
\nEach soul is aware
\nThey do not need the meat trade
\nTo register their lies
\nReally its all back to front
\nWhere innocence now dies<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
