A gentle soul that once, Trod well, worn paths, Laid down by matriarchs past. Now just, Brittle bones baked by a searing heat, Bleached beyond a perfect white. Here lies the last elephant. © Nick Strong 2014

The Last Elephant
A gentle soul that once, Trod well, worn paths, Laid down by matriarchs past. Now just, Brittle bones baked by a searing heat, Bleached beyond a perfect white. Here lies the last elephant. © Nick Strong 2014
We have to stop poaching of these and other precious creatures that will be gone unless we act.
