Read and Enjoy • Critical Thinking
The poem gives the animals’ perspective on the modern world. The
animals question man’s hectic lifestyle and wonder whether he has
lost touch with the earth he lives on.
What do the animals really think
of man and his modern ways?
Busy and tired, no time for joy
a grind from morning to night.
Has he forgotten the beauty and love
all creatures were given for free?
What do animals really think
of life in the modern world?
Has man forgot to touch the earth
its moist and fertile soil?
