Future)

Glimpse of a Polluted Future

by Kelly Roper

Where are the birds that used to dot the sky?

They're not here anymore, and I have to wonder why.

Where are the fish that used to swim in this stream?

I can't see them anymore. What does that mean?

Where are the frogs that used to croak around this lake?
I can't hear them anymore. There must be some mistake.

I wish there was a clock whose hands I could rewind.

We might have saved these creatures
if we'd just had more time.

Time to make people see how

We are damaging our Earth,
Time to realize what it all was truly worth.

But the animals are disappearing at an alarming rate.

If we don't finally band together,
 it may really be too late.

Like what I said a while ago, the poem will be

used in our lesson today. (The learners will read altogether)

words. The Sky and the Why has the same
ending sound.
