Turn the Clock Back
Daphne Marie L. Siega

Endless greens, breathtaking
landscapes Multicolored floras,
unrestricted faunas Turquoise waters,
unblemished oceans Thriving corals, |
abounding fishes

IT WAS…
Omni-paradise, perpetual paradise
Eternal paradise, a world in
paradise

Dreary fields, contaminated
terrains Countless landfills, toxic
dumpsites Floating trash, warming
seas
Polluted coasts, declining reefs

IT IS…
Omni-plastic, perpetual plastic
Eternal plastic, a world in
plastic

Turn the clock back
Back to what it was…

Omni-paradise
Perpetual paradise
Eternal paradise
A WORLD IN PARADISE
