I thought...

I thought...

shells are entitled to being whole

fish are entitled to do the "wave" in the deep blue

sharks are entitled to fins

sea turtles are entitled to plastic-free snacks

seagulls are entitled to having oil-free feathers

little kids are entitled to see a beau-ti-ful,                             just for their eyes to sparkle. 

                                                     heal-thy ocean we've preserved 

 

Am I that much of a think-er? A dream-er? 

Or should we be do-ers? Go-get-ters?

Instead of a generation of for-get-ters? And never-mind-ers?
