Finale the poem by judith wright?

In her poem, Judith Wright expresses a deep appreciation for the natural world and acknowledges that humans have a responsibility to preserve it. The final stanza of the poem sums up this theme:

For we who have known

the surf and the rock,

the river and the rain

and the desert sand,

the red of the bloodwood,

the green of the leaves,

the song of the birds,

and the silence of the stars—

We know this world

is a place of wonder

and beauty and terror

and mystery,

A place to cherish,

A place to love,

A place to protect.
