 My Ode to Nature!
Name: Dystopia
Selected Theme: Conservation
Entry:
Its family tradition for the mother to bring her daughter to the beach on the child's fourth birthday. So that's what I did.
Dented cans sat in filth. Broken wine bottles dotted the water.
"Its beautiful here, mommy. Other beaches don't smell as good."
"When your grandmother brought me, we saw a fish."
"A real fish?" She glanced at me with disbelief.
"It was dying."
"Poor fish. Will we see one? I thought they were x-stink."
"They are extinct."
She looked back to the ocean. "Its still beautiful, mommy."
To her, it truly was.
But I could remember something better.
