Tatiana King, Bermuda Institute, wrote a poem for her creative writing at the Saragossa Sea Conference.
Sargasso Sea
For hundreds of years man has searched for gold
Yet it has always been right under our noses
I have gold, you have gold, we have gold
Beautiful gold that flows under clear blue sapphire
But we put trash in our gold
We put sludge in our gold
We put oil in our gold
And it makes me confused, why do they trash our gold?
Our beautiful planet gold, our planet treasure
Our planet diamond, our planet earth
We must treasure our gold, I’m sorry did I stutter?
We must treasure our water and the fragile beauty filled within
If you would guard gold with your life
Why not protect something that’s more precious?
