The polar bear lives so far
From plastic bags, oil spills, and trash dumps
That you’d think he’s safe and sound,
Eating fish, taking icy baths,
Lying on his back with his paws up,
Enjoying the sun.
But alas, he is under threat:
Global warming, melting ice,
And the chemicals we throw away
Linger in the water,
And end up in the fish he eats
And then are stored in his fat.
Thus the polar bear grows sick and dies.

Help save the polar bear!
Rent a ship and bring him ice and healthy food.
Or if that is beyond your means,
Walk instead of driving your car,
(Or at least take the bus)
Use no more water than you need,
Don’t waste food,
Fantastic poem as usual, with a great message.
I tip my hat to you. 🙂
Absolutely agree 100%. Well said.

If the polar bears were armored, they would no doubt wage war against us!
I like you even more so now that you have promoted saving polar bears! You are a wonderful person 🙂
Since you like winter so much, let us rent a ship and bring the polar bears ice! I will make the ice, you will procure the ship.
I like it! When do we leave?
When your bag is ready.
100 per cent!
Loved the poem and the message. 🙂
Don’t you think,we all have been talking about global warming and its effects for quite some time now without really doing much about it ? Has it become one of those topics where everyone is supposed to ‘ look serious and worried’ and do NOTHING ?
We, in India are facing its consequence with poor monsoon this time

I got a bit emotional here..hope you don’t mind 🙂
I don’t mind at all. For my part, I don’t feel like I’m doing much myself, so I can’t complain.
We should do that!
You never cease to impress — on all levels. I love polar bears!
Awesome steam showers, my family had one of these built around 5 years
ago and so it may possibly do with replacing, would never get a bland old
routine type of shower ever again
great poem..with a message that lingers and keeps one thinking 🙂 loved it..i am sure the polar bears would love it more, had they been able to read it 😀
I suspect that if I were to try to recite it to them they would eat me before I finished. 😦
