Day by Day

The velvet green trees from long ago,

Bond with the clear blueberry water.

Troubles come across the pair in a

Way that no one could imagine.

The water is thrashed with plastic

As the beloved tree is polluted with 

Smoke and unhealthy gases.

We try hard to fight our pollution disease

But all we see is an abandoned plain field.

With no hope, no courage, no strength

Against our enemies.

The red hot flames burn the oak bark of my skin

As the horrendous rubbish pushes the sealife to its

Limits.

Day by day, bushfires calm.

Day by day, the leaves come back.

Day by day the plastic disappears.

The humans learn their lesson as

A month, a year, a decade, a century

Passes by and they remain unharmed.
