Building Nature Lovers

By teaching, encouraging

My three and half-year-old son.

saw a patch of aloe, recognized it.

That made me very happy,

even emotional.

I told both my kids,

that one of the most famous naturalists,

Sir Attenborough,

is now a hundred years old,

which means his time on this earth,

may not be very long.

So, a new generation of naturalists,

is needed,

to help the ailing world.

They both nodded.

My six-year-old daughter said,

“Mommy, if in the future,

our name appears,

in some magazine or news,

it will be because of you,

because you taught us,

encouraged to love nature.”

I felt happy, beyong measure.
