Beneath the rain-soaked canopy, among the sparkling dew
A melancholy tune disturbs the silence we’re used to
Weep now as we recount it – tears should cloud and sting your eyes
At the songs of mourning mingling with the tempest’s baleful cries.
These songs, unheard by most the world, are tales of plain despair.
See; if you listen hard enough, they seem to fill the air.
And everywhere you turn you see the reasons – realise!
Thoughtless encounters lead to beauty’s untimely demise.
The song, instead of fading, swells into a great climax.
For its singers know, as well as us: they’re never coming back.

I'm looking for a collaboration with someone here; if anyone would like to put this poem into a bit of visual art, I'd be very grateful
Written for Durrell Wildlife; I'm going to be doing all I can to support this fantastic charity. "Saving species from extinction is exactly what Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust has been doing for fifty years. While many think halting the terrifying rate of extinction of animal species is a lost cause, Durrell, as a charitable organisation, has made it our mission to do what we can to protect endangered animals across the planet. With our scientific expertise, dedication and your support we CAN protect them from extinction."

...and you can consider that the end of the matter.
But no, I'm afraid I'm entirely uninspired! What do you think it would work well with?

I really would have liked to do a photomanip in collaboration with you(because wildlife protection is close to my heart), but unfortunately my computer crashed yesterday, and my Photoshop is gone
