A note to all of us
A note about our waters that is being polluted every second
Because we are selfish to our own needs
We don't see with our hearts and minds
We just see with our eyes and think it will all work out on its own
But we don't know that we as Humans need to take that initial step
That step that could save and help all sorts of creatures that dwell within our waters
And maybe we could save ourselves in the process
