Nothing To Be Proud Of At All Poem by Francis Duggan

Near perfect women are rare and wise men are few
One might say that this is not anything new
And people with big egos plentiful everywhere
There are billions of them in the big World out there
The huge increase in the human population to Nature's creatures has come at a huge cost
So many species of animals and birds to extinction have been lost
Due to land being developed for building when trees are cut away
In every town, village and city this is happening every day
So sad to think because of us so many species of wildlife are becoming rare
With other life forms most humans their space are not willing to share
When trees are removed wild creatures lose their territory
Extinction nearer to another species with the removal of every tree
Our egos may be big but our achievements are small
In fact we have nothing to be proud of at all.
