Far Too Many People

Far too many people it does seem this way
The seven billion plus human beings in the Human World of today
Despite wars and famines the human population is on the rise
When it comes  to family planning most people are not wise
With the increase in the human population less land for food to be grown
And that the poor are getting poorer and hungrier is a fact we cannot disown
Global warming due to burning of fossil fuels hurries on Climate Change
One of the reasons why World weather patterns of late have been acting so strange
Natural habitats to accomodate Nature's creatures to human dwellings losing out
On our part in the extinction of many species of wildlife there can be little doubt
That the human population is increasing at an alarming rate
Is something that we ought not to celebrate
And the gap between the haves and the have nots widening by the day
This does seem a sad thing for  to have to say.
