Our Father who is in Heavens, Keep on Earth, animals, Keep the lions and their strength, The elephants and their defenses, Protect the kind giraffes, And save the impressive gorillas, Make that we do not cut forests, And what we let spread rivers, Our Father who is in Heavens, You are certainly angry That we hunt leopards, Make that they always escape, Save the zebras in zoos, And rhinoceros sometimes deceived, Keep living the hippopotamus, And make the man less stupid, Our Father who is in Heavens, Never we shall forgive you, If went away the elephants, And the blank nature left, Our Father who is in Heavens, Protect our wild earth, And I would do you the peace here, Now and even in the sky .. |

Thank you, Yann, for your kind prayer. Animals are innocent, pure and good and deserve our love, respect and care - and yet some receive terrible treatment from some people. It breaks the hearts of those of us who love animals. We do what we can for them – some people a lot more than others - but it is not enough. We need to join you in your prayer for them as well, and I do. Owl |

hi diana, there is some despair in your comment, and i hope someione will hear that prayer, it is not too late i guess, but there are so many cruel and interested people, money is the bad key, but animals are more than money, thanks for commenting, yann |
