A Message from the Ocean

by Ayesha Amin aged 9

It was like it was murmuring to
me from the depths of the blue.
“Look after me, don’t pollute me
Cherish me, enjoy me!!”

The waves surrounded me like a coiling snake.
Towering above me as if they were telling me off,
for something I had done wrong!

I finally understood what it meant.
Miraculously, the waves calmed.
The waves became ripples.
It was as if they were telepathic.
