I know one person can make a difference. The choices I make today affect everything and everyone around me. Instead of being disheartened, I'm going to stand my ground and hopefully influence others as well!
Forward
Don't forget our checkered past
Progress aphrodisiac
Forward, forward, never back
How polluted that water
Current carries kayak
Forward, forward, never back
What pesticides disperse
Wind blows through tamarack
Forward, forward, never
Another green forest felled
Axe arcs around lumberjack
Forward, forward, never back
Has someone been offended
Thought provoking wisecrack
Forward, forward, never back
Spreading chemicals afar
Into the air by smokestack
Forward, forward, never back
Innocence, both sides destroyed
Wars lost lives from attack
Forward, forward, never back
Trees by death that entertain
Read classic pulled from bookrack
Forward, forward, never back
Many irrelevant things
With technology we track
Forward, forward, never back
