Apols Gentle Ones

Genial Giants,
Magnificent meadows
Grazing Gentles,
Floridian figureheads
Castaway casualties,
Dreadfully doomed!

Starvin’
Emaciated
Glyphosated
Fertilised
Algal bloom’d
Degraded
Deoxygenated
Sewaged
Smash’d,
Thousands
Exterminated!

Shoreline defenders
Oyster water-purifiers,
Lush leas
Magnificent mangroves,
Mother’s carers
Seagrass Sapiens,
Earthly heaven!
