Wally Pendergast, the Penguin
World Traveler and Bon Vivant!
There's a little penguin, from a frozen place.
Curious to discover, questions he must face.
From the polar region, swims the seven seas.
Learning of the dangers, to save all species.
Traveling the wide world, learning every day.
Meeting many creatures, all along the way.
Whales and turtles dying, "Save them all!" he pleas.
Friends and foes together, working to make peace.
Animals so different, learning all he can.
Searching the world over, finding about man.
Learns of man's mistakes, finding things to fix.
Save the world for better, no matter the risk.
Seeing hungry children, children in a trade.
Shocked at awful problems, many men had made.
Finds the world amazing, learning from the past.
Wants to save the planet, wants to make it last.
"We must protect earth's environment,
Make it safe for all."
Says the little penguin, Wally Pendergast!
