soaring to the top
with best view of stunning park
she feeds her babies
its numbers decline
endangered species, precious
dark brown spotted owl
watching from above
birds’ chorus resounds within
grandiose forest
advocates promote
for the cultural touchstone
brown, white spots, those eyes
four inches in length
wandering salamander
lives like king in crown
watching intently
in pursuit of carrion
a huge bald eagle
hold dreams close to heart
raise face to the beguiled blue
evergreens enchant
sunbeam bursts throughout
crowns of majestic redwoods
hope twirls with a breeze
they stand defiant
soaking up carbon and mist
life support for all
SAVE THE REDWOODS!
Spotted owls, a myriad of bird species, and salamanders are only a fraction of the wildlife that live in redwood forests.
We hung out with the redwoods on Mother’s Day, and I couldn’t imagine a better place to celebrate! I hope you enjoyed the facts and the magic! 💖
