Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Earth Day '21, Western Lowland Gorilla - LP Zoo


On Earth Day, twenty twenty one

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo

Conservation work's being done,

But so much more we need to do.

Western lowland gorillas be

An endangered ape species that

Are losing very rapidly

Their west African habitat.

Humans are cutting down the trees,

Leaving the land wasted and bare,

Homeless gorilla refugees

No longer able to live there.


Support enterprises that use

Good forest plans that don't abuse.
