Sir David Attenborough Poem by Lyn Paul

Sir David Attenborough

Rating: 5.0


Aging is a gift
A great gift you have had
What you have explored
To share with the world


Praising you as a perfectionist
For giving us the value
Of all creatures great and small

How can we not adore the smallest creatures?
Be it a pest
To the largest
As such an elephant

I think of you and your gift
You have given us all

Also I think of you
When I am so annoyed
With an insect above my door
In my room
Reaching for repellent spray

Wondering if you yourself
Can possibly be annoyed
By a fly

Thank you
You have achieved so much
Bringing this natural beauty
To our lives

This year (in U.S. in state of South Carolina) I found a small (young I guess) Copperhead (poisonous snake) poised beside a handtool I'd set down near me on the ground amid dried leaves. I deposited over our home's boundary

And THANKS to the camera operators et al as well. He may have catch-them-alive fly traps. When a fly is caught he drives 50 km to release it so it can bother SOMEONE ELSE! ! !
