With your scuba suit on you jump off the boat

Your feet moving rapidly

As you take a breath and float 

You see pale white coral as the temperature changes

Sadness washes over you

 

Those misty blue seas changing their colour 

Will one day be green with no aquatic life to be seen

 

Years go by and nothing changes 

And now it is in worrying ranges 

The fish are no better

Might yet even be worse

The poor things could be suffering 

The fish starting to flee

It is no longer safe here

Predators rejoicing as prey give in.

 

Fish live in coral

Which is why all of us need to help

Protect the underwater forest,

The safe haven for the fish.
