Nature's Miracles

There is a mystery that is most mysterious
So our strategy will have to be ingenious
To solve this, without to-do or fuss
We'll have to be quite precocious
and find clues, so very precious.

We were approached by the baby elephant
Who asked us why baby piggies grunt
and why tiger cubs are taught to hunt
and why the peacock's tail is so brilliant
Also, why each snowflake is different

So we went around to the wood
To found out whatever we could
And, as all detectives should
We wore sweaters with a hood
and carried a big packet of food.

We listened and we looked around
We caught each sight and each sound
The forest, with clues did abound
in the trees, and on the ground
And do you know what we found?

That all these questions have one answer
It's all about Mother nature
Each animal, bird or creature
Each land, air or sea feature
Each birdsong, each landscape picture

Is there because nature made it so
Which is a miracle, you know!
You, yourself, from top to toe
Are nature's child, and as you grow
Nature's adult - that is so!
