The Little Copenhagen Mermaid.
When I was young and Santa old
And children did as they were told
I’d gaze at fish a-cycling along the Milky Way
Behind them pigs would loop the loop
As scented breezes cooled my soup
And elephants, both white and pink, a-whistling would play;
In rhubarb trees they’d build their nests,
As politicians combed their crests
While working for ‘The Populus’ throughout the live-long day.
Now Candy mountains, butter too,
Have dropped us in the Irish stew
And wine lakes, shining shore to shore, tempt us to sail away
From truth, responsibility,
And wise but dull maturity,
Straight to the sirens call are we drawn closer every day.
In pea-green boats upon a lake
of lucozade our thirst we slake
while breathing clouds of candy-floss the golden geese will lay
then we will gorge on golden eggs
as we bestride the world on legs
made out of malted-whisky kegs we flew down from Strathspey.
And foaming ‘champers’ at the mouth
We’ll strip the world from north to south
And calling Truth a blabbermouth, we’ll sing, “Calloo, Callay.”
And then the dreaded Jabberwock,
we’ll meet before we’ve taken stock
that nothing is there left to hock to pay the pipes to play
and nonsense will the last word be
at parties where the mushroom tea
is brewed by madder hats than we. Let’s desperately pray!

The main reason I contribute to the Monteverde Conservation League US is to assist with land purchase program for a corridor from the Cloud Forest to the Pacific – a lofty goal, but of critical importance as it will allow multiple dependent ecosystems to thrive. Isolated oases, although important, may not enable the survival of many species (not only the migratory species, but also the plants/animals resident in one area that are dependent on migratory birds and mammals). Each dollar given helps the MCL get closer to this goal:

In a world of environmental change, where are we at? Project: Southern Tier is a cross country bicycle ride through the Southern Tier of the USA. As it progresses it collects regional environmental perspective. Scenic and educational!

Give a Dollar, Plant a Tree!
This Labor Day, Monteverde Conservation League US is working to make the world a better place. We invite you to join us by rolling up your sleeves and help us plant a tree in the Children's Eternal Rainforest.
The Children's Eternal Rainforest just added 20 acres (thanks to your generous donations), but much of it was cleared, and now it needs to be rebuilt. But in order to rebuild this integral part of the rainforest, we need your help. Just one dollar will pay to plant one new tree, another addition to the beautiful Children's Eternal Rainforest--and a helpful way to cut back on CO2!
See the pictures of the challenge and the goal here:
