The Great Barrier Reef

The transparent ocean sucks up all the warm light rays,

             The reflection blinds me                                                                             Coral and kelp swaying softly with the wrinkles of the water                    gaze upon the dying coral,                                               

I cannot stop this, it's inevitable!

The ocean lifted its arm to touch the shore

Trying to pull me in I cannot resist it,

The reef is the most magical and majestic thing on earth

It's like it puts me in a trance

It reminds me of a dream I once had

The reef is an animal awaiting its prey,

Using the water as its bait

When I am running across the sand, I can hear it call me

The reef is a place from the heavens

It must have fallen to earth

The birds just add to the sensation,

Their calming chirps make me feel at home

But then sadly I also hear the oil tankers dumping oil into the water

The slick creates a scarily black layer over the animal’s habitat,

We must save the reef!
