The Florida Everglades Poem

More about The Florida Everglades Poem

In the heart of Florida lies a land,
A vast wilderness, unique and grand,
A realm of marshes, sawgrass plains,
A haven for life, where nature reigns.
The Everglades, a watery maze,
Teeming with creatures, in mysterious ways,
Manatees glide in rivers slow,
Alligators lurk, where shadows grow.
Cypress trees with knotted knees,
Birds take flight with graceful ease,
Panthers roam with stealthy grace,
In this wild, untamed, and ancient place.
Herons wade in shallow pools,
Egrets dance on stilts, like graceful fools,
The elusive Florida Panther prowls,
In the Everglades, nature's magic howls.
A fragile ecosystem, delicate and rare,
A sanctuary for life, beyond compare,
Where water flows in a rhythm's song,
In the Everglades, nature's symphony belongs.
Yet, human impact takes its toll,
Pollution, development, a growing role,
Conservation efforts, a vital fight,
To protect this treasure, both day and night.
The Everglades, a natural wonder,
A breathtaking landscape to ponder,
A refuge for wildlife, a gift so true,
A symbol of resilience, a world anew.
