Irwin Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

Irwin
Small things can do more harm than big ones
Elephants are less dangerous than ticks and scorpions.
The biggest fire caused by a smallest spark,
A small matchstick can burn a huge park.
Steve achieved worldwide fame
A star seen everywhere, reputable his name,
from the television series: (The Crocodile Hunter)
Zoologist, beasts and Lion Tamer
Naturalist, Conservationist,
Television personality, Herpetologist
He had not been swallowed by a big crocodile
nor had he been eaten up by a shark,
But he died being pierced by a small stingray barb
He used to dash into fight in a scarse garb!
