The Polar Bear’s Home

It was not long ago

I lived in a world I loved

I could walk for miles

In any direction

No walls of boundaries

I hunted through holes in the ice

Slept in the cold arctic air

My cubs learned to hide in the snow

And how to play between the drifts

We were a family and we were happy

Playing and hunting in the wild

The world was our yard

A place to run and live our lives

Now, it is all gone

The snows are just a distant memory

The ice no longer comes

So we will just sit and wait

Hoping the coldness will return

Hoping that someday we may have our home back
