The water shimmers in the sun

It's clear and calm and glossy

The day has just begun

The coral underneath is mossy

 

The fish are swimming softly

In the city of coral and sea

But the sharks above are deadly

The fish will never be free

 

The coral is colourful and vibrant

Different patterns in all of them

Some change in every moment

Coral is the sea's gem

 

The turtles rome the reef

They swim, they splash, they splish

Although their sightings are brief

They're as beautiful as they seem

 

What a wonderful place this is

Located in the coral sea

Is a beautiful place of bliss

The Great Barrier Reef is the place to be
