The More We Learn Of Nature Poem by Francis Duggan

In life we never stop learning it does seem true to say
And of Nature we learn something new every day
And the more we learn of Nature the more we come to realize
That of her ways we know little this not a surprise
And though my wonder of her only does seem to grow
Of Nature so little i can claim to know
In far away fields i grew to love her as a boy
And learning of her ways today i enjoy
The fact is we depend on Nature for our very survival and fact never lie
Every life form including us humans of starvation and thirst without her would quickly die
At a time when the Earth Mother who feeds us is in need of every friend
Most of us humans to her not grateful why otherwise pretend
She is our greatest friend on her we depend on for to live
Yet we take and take from her and in return to her little give.
