MY WORK OF ART

Explore

Can you look across a river

To the shores of a distant land

Can you see our world today

Can you really understand

Explore the many canals

Upstream through a salmon nook

Traverse a mountain to see the moon

Then come down and take a look

Can you marvel at deep blue water

Can you preserve that native land

Someone saved that mammal

Scurrying across the sand

Can you visit a historical site

Explore the places I’ve never been

Then you’ll get to where you’ll always be

And you’ll never go back again

Explore the adventure that lives within

The world is a great big place

Despite its enormity it’s where you begin

Within this time and space

Can you dig the soil with bare hands

Revere the smell of earth

Our world is disappearing

Come see it for its worth

Explore the canyons while they last

Bridge the gap of needle to spire

Can you hear the echoes too

Watch a hawk soar higher and higher

Explore this planet everyday

See the sky and all that’s grand

Can you see our world tomorrow

Then you’ll really understand
