A koala sits high in his tree

Chewing on his eucalyptus leaf,

When the ground around him

Begins to rumble

And down comes his crashing tree.

 

Meanwhile deep under in his safe home burrow

The platypus dreams of a world unlike any other,

When the roar of water

Floods his ears

And his home burrow is filled with water.

 

On the other side of Australia

The sea turtle feasts

Deep under the sea,

When the jellyfish plastic drifts into his mouth

And can’t be spat out.
