Remember Dinosaurs!

Do you remember how amazed a child was
when you first learnt about dinosaurs?
Look beside the mountain road
these fern plants like a feild
they are really an ancient forest
once covered across the whole earth
They always stayed the same and will never change

As long as someone learning first sees a picture
of a dinosaur and finds them interesting creates
a memory
Remember triceratops
someone hear about
how great it was
thinks so too

Stegasauruses and Tyrannasaurus
bronchiosaurus and pteradactyls
all walking over the land before time
and the years burned by

Look up at our mountains
see running down son
what have you done
feild of fern
watch it burn
time is lost
forget again

How beautiful, yes the fern has been around longer
than dinosaurs, what tales they could tell, if they
could talk. Lovely poem Kahdai.

I loved those 'Land Before Time' films as a child and had a whole host of dinosaur toys! Thank you for bringing back good memories Kahdai ;)
