What a Wonderful World - A Poem

and the penguins polluting the land
I saw bees driving tanks
and the tigers polluting the sea
I saw flowers killing children
and the trees building walls
oh, what a wonderful world!

What a world we have!!!
Very excellent irony!
Giving Natures possessions an unwanted job.;)
