Man

poem by: Chel Scott
Written on Aug 16, 2018 

Using guns, harpoons and nets,
our seas will soon be bare,
all that natural beauty we love,
will just no longer be there.

What can we do?
How do we make them see?
Our whales and dolphins,
have as much right to be.

They do to our animals,
as we do to man,
why must we destroy, 
everything that we can?

We were given the Earth,
full of all that we need,
and now it's almost gone,
because of man and his greed.
