The Sea is so Beautiful by Martina Prinu

:


Thinking of the sea makes me feel
Happy because
Everything in it is

So beautiful. There
Are so many kinds of different plants and fish.
Lovely as it is,
Though, some people don't see it like
You and me. They

See it as a place to throw trash and wastes. But
Everything dirty that goes into it hurts all the
Animals and. plants that live there. They kill them too.

Nobody should do this but they never listen.
Everyday they trash it and scar it. The sea is
Very pretty but if they keep it up,
Everything will be destroyed. Just
Remember this, if

Everyone throws trash into the sea,
Nothing will be living anymore.
Do you want this? I don't. Please

Say something to them if you see it happen.

The Sea is so Beautiful.
