Countryside Menace Poem by Lee Fones

flock of geese all sneeze
quack, achoo and quack
bird flu horrid disease
really don't want you back

remember mad cow disease
farmers warned by placard
cows walked weak on knees
countryside looked knackered

remember cases of swine flu
killed thousands of pigs
cause was influenza, awful do
pigs killed by poison figs

there are many things
humankind is unaware
like underwater springs
and the chemicals they share
