President Oborax call to action

Adding on to Lucy’s post:

The Once-ler shouted out with glee

For he couldn’t believe what his eyes could see

The Lorax walking simply forward

Not to be mistaken with a Morward.

The Lorax looked at President Oborax

And said to him, “is that all?

You propose a bill?

That’s no better than a gill!

You must go to the UN

And become a world leader of men.

You must lead the World Summit

Copenhagen cannot be a Plummit.”

President Oborax starred at him

His mouth a wide,

His tonsils a flapping.

How dare this Lorax speak to him like that?

Does he not know he could crush him flat?

President Oborax rose to his full height

And shouted to the Lorax with all his might:

“My bill will have success with Congress.

Do not digress,

For it will be a success.

I have faith in my representatives.

They are not tentative.

The Lorax looked at him sadly,

And wanted to say oh so badly

That Congress would let him down.

The bill would drop like a crown.

“You must go to Copenhagen.

And lead with robust.

Call up to all nations,

Do not go for summations.

Lead this fight,

Without any fright.

Curb carbon emissions by 30%

No less.

The levels must be at 30%

below 1990 level’s.

We can only raise our temperature

By two more degrees.

Or who knows,

The Polar bears may freeze?

Call on all nations,

North and South

Call on all nations

With a Shout.

Something must done,

Nations can not be spun.”
