SAVE RIVERS

I walked through the forest one day

And came across a sandy bay.

I went a little further hoping to see

A strong, swift river flowing free.

My impatient eyes fell here and there,

But they found nothing, to my despair.

After hopelessly wandering for hours,

I realised that the mistake was ours.

The only trickle of water I could see

was the tear that was rolling down my cheek.

I couldn’t stand the guilt any more.

I needed to bring the rivers back once more

I could already imagine the suffering animals,

no more jolly festivities or carnivals.

All because we became greedy and selfish,

Our pride expanded like a puffer fish.

Unfortunately, the past is unchangeable.

Now, we have to make the best possible.

We have to save the rivers that keep us alive.

Together, we must help the veins of the forest survive.

Let us all unite through the campaign.

We must do all we can in shine or rain.

Plant lots of trees and increase the greenery

And soon, you’ll see a magnificent blue scenery.
