ICEBERG By zoe hussain

The hot summer sun eats away at the iceberg

Gnawing, Biting, Melting.

The iceberg’s cries echo through the vast, cold sea

Screaming, Yelling, Howling.

The little iceberg melts into water

Fresh, Cold, Clear.

Into the salty sea, it goes to disappear 

Swaying, Splashing, Spilling.

Suddenly, sea levels rise

Bigger, Taller, Wider.

As you look out at the beautiful sea

You can hear its pleas 

It's like a symphony, the breeze

It's dancing around the trees

But only we have the keys 

To unlock the new path 

To save our beautiful ocean

Because if you put it in slow motion 

It’s us that caused this commotion.
