At the seashorethe scarlet rays of the setting sunslowly dipping down into the watertouch the shimmering waves.The oil keeps on gushingspilling and contaminatingthe vast waters of the oceanthe cool breeze used to passthrough my hair gentlynow it smears my hairwith the smoky oliy mist.In the fading oily sun light the silhouette of the flying birdswith black and thick featherswith dangling fligt trying to flyand the flight dies in the wings.Along with the shore, sea-shells, driftwood, pebbles and oil blobsbirds are stuck theretheir feet their feathersall stuck in the oily mudtheir tiny soft featherspushing in vain get heavywith the sluggish waves,the waters became blackthe air is thick withthe smell of the oil.The birds try and try to flybut get planted there forevercannot breathe cannot eat.Countless thousands are deadcountless will be dead soon.I fear what would becometo my feet walking alongthe shore on the oily sandsif I dip my feetin the sea water at the shore!What would becomethe bone white sea -shells,honey drift wood,multi-colored pebbles,the golden sand,my bare henna-colored feet my footprints?Life is dyingand the flight dies in the wings!
