Pollution

By: 

Alfred

I wrote this at school from scratch.

When you think about pollution,
And we think well what’s the solution,
Because we’re deep in a hole,
Time has taken its toll,

But there’s still hope,
Left for us,
Because slowly but surely,
Were making an impact,

Electrical cars,
Driving less,
Walking more
And we can definitely see,

Hope.
