THIS IS NOT YOUR COUNTRY
Which begs the question,
Who does it belong to
If not me, him, her or you?
It must belong to somebody;
Though come to think of it
It was here long before
Humans ever set a foot upon it
Perhaps Tyrannasaurus Rex
Can lay claim to it,
But I doubt it.
From the fogbound coastline of Newfoundland
To the deserts of North Africa
From the rainforests of Queensland
A mere half a billion years ago
The first legs walked upon this land,
But whose were they?
This seems to me to be a glorious celebration of the deep history of the Earth, Tom. Love it.

Delighted that you like it, John. You are quite right in what you say; I think we humans can only claim squatters rights to it!
