As you swim past swarms of Potato Cod and Alousent Pink Maniray, you feel at peace 

As far as you can see, bright colours of coral pop and bring life into the world

The deep blue ocean filled with marine life and hope

You swim with the dolphins that squeal with delight as they jump over your head

You taste the salty water crust on your tongue as a sea cucumber wriggles up a rock

 

But this is not the reality

Your body swims through the icy water grey white and black fill your eyes

This used to be a paradise, now it's an empty oasis 

Bleached coral makes the aquatic world look bare

Pollution swimming with the decaying coral 

 

The careless actions of us humans

Overfishing sucking all of the fish from this delicate ecosystem 

Mining and burning of coal and fossil fuels are having devastating impacts here

Global warming causing sea temperatures to rise, killing fish

If we stop fishing so much and find a sustainable source, we could fix this

 

Dugongs could swim happily with no threat  

Whales could start their extraordinary call

Coral could bloom back to life 

Pink Maniray could dive in this deep blue sea

All of the innocent animals could come back. We caused mess - fix it
