El Condor Pasa
High in the heavens a condor floats on feathers
Design perfection grants a view of forever
God’s creation rolls out before the noble bird
Yet still below him the strife of man is heard
Greed spurs vast expanses of trees to be deforested
Senseless crimes against nature man should be arrested
The silent airborne sentinel glides as if never landing
Let’s see short-sighted man try to level the Andes…
The pipes of Pan bear him on an endless trail
Away from blighted lands where man doth fail
He wears no black cap of condemnation
His domain is the duty of EVERY nation

This is such an emotional,
This is such an emotional, thought provoking poem Graham of human desires and mistakes, yet nature will win through in the end.
Hope I've grasped what you were trying to convey.
Jenny.
