THE SEA IS AT WAR
The sea is beautiful and quiet
Always at peace if not disturbed
Enjoying the sporty waves
With the blue reflection matches the sky
Looking down with the smiling sun
Upon its salty healing crystals, filled
With the lives of fins, scales, shells and reefs
Showing off their beauty scattered in the deep
But the sea is at war
Like we ourselves fighting foreign bodies
Beneath our notice
Behind the rare beauty of this settled water
Is pollution to repel this beautiful nature
With sunken dump of cans and paper
Buried debris from deforestation
A vision not granted to embrace the future
But I walk beside the splashing waves
And saw how well the sea behave
With dead carcasses buried in the sand
I know the sea is at war in this dreadful land
