Dear Coral Don't Cry..

The most beautiful innocents 

In the Ocean 

I've ever seen is YOU..

Just like a mother to it's child 

You Are, 

to the marine creatures..

protect them, feed them, Care for them 

and are the Home for them

You indeed are, 

The Proud Rainforests of the Ocean..

As you grow as a reef,

It seems like heavens under water

Beautiful, Unique and Colourful..

Fish of course, 

are the Angels in that heavens 

Enjoying and flourishing 

Every moment as they wish..

But dear Coral we Humans,

All they try

Is to robber what they don't belong..

And you belong to the mother nature..

Oh dear Coral Don't you Cry

even it hurts

to become a white skeleton 

And getting punished for doing 

Nothing wrong..

Even amidst all the grief 

at the moment..

We did Wrong and it's mere ignorance

So dear Coral..

Hope and faith

Is always planted in our hearts

Just for you 

So be strong you will be safe again.. Soon

Promise, I do
