A Legacy Worth Preserving for All to Behold

Oscar Auliq-Ice 1994 (Port Elizabeth)



Amidst the woods and fields so green,
Nature's beauty can be seen.
From the chirping birds in the trees,
To the buzzing bees and gentle breeze.

The flowers bloom in rainbow hues,
And the leaves rustle with morning dews.
The sun shines bright and warms the land,
While the moon and stars glow on command.

The rivers flow with gentle grace,
And the oceans roar with a fierce embrace.
Mountains tower high in the sky,
And valleys dip low, where rivers run by.

Wildlife roams free in the land,
With beauty and grace at their command.
Deer that dart, and rabbits that hop,
And majestic eagles that soar and stop.

Nature's cycles, a wondrous sight,
From dawn's first light to the end of night.
From birth and growth, to age and decay,
It's a magnificent display day by day.

So let us cherish nature's gifts,
And protect it from harm and rifts.
For it is a treasure to behold,
A legacy worth preserving for all to behold.
