Could we have a moratorium
On nature poetry please
A resounding snoratorium
On meadows, lakes, and trees
A halt to poems about sunsets,
Full moons, snowfalls and such
These tickle the fancy of nature buffs
But for others - not so much
A cutback on odes to roses,
Summer's glory or butterflies
Fewer tributes to all things blooming
And birds that fill the skies
Let's take a break from winter scenes
And the beauty of an ancient sea
Try one about the human race
Think of the novelty
