Read together
In nature's playground, let's take a peek
Where the wetlands lay, and the beavers speak
They build their dams and make a home
Underground burrows where they roam
With silky fur and shiny teeth
They glide and swim, with ease beneath
The surface of the water's sheen
A world of wonder, yet to be seen
A chameleon hides in the trees
Changing colors with the breeze
Larva wriggles, bugs take flight
Nature's marvel, a stunning sight
In tropical lands, where the sun shines bright
Wetlands flourish, a wondrous sight
Where creatures play and call their home
A place of peace, they freely roam
So let's explore, let's take a look
At the beauty that lies in every nook
Nature's gifts, all around us wait
To be discovered, before it's too late.
Talk about it
