PLASTIC ISLAND
©Gary Bowman

Let me take you, To an island,
Floating, On Peaceful Sea
This island, Ever swirling, Is calling, You and me.
Plastic Island

Growing bigger, Than the Lone Star state
Vortex, Where plastic bottles gravitate
Join me, Don’t hesitate
Plastic Island

Peaceful currents, Wash ashore,
Plastic treasures, Evermore
Gentle gyre, Calm winds blowing,
Ocean landfill, Ever-growing
Plastic Island

Mermaid tears, Forever lost,
Turtles, fish and albatross,
Wake up, Friends, And count the cost
Plastic Island

Let me take you, To an island,
Floating, On Peaceful Sea
