1. One sunny day, Dolphin, Turtle, Clownfish, and Starfish were playing hide and seek in the ocean. Starfish was the seeker, and they all hid in different places. Starfish found Turtle and Clownfish quickly, but the Dolphin was nowhere to be seen! 2. Dolphin couldn’t be found anywhere! The friends began to worry. Just as they were about to give up, a pufferfish named Nabil swam over, out of breath. “I saw a whale near Dolphin!” Nabil said. “I think the whale might have eaten him!” 3. The friends swam quickly to where Nabil had seen Dolphin. To their surprise, they found Dolphin chatting happily with a baby whale. Scene 5: Suddenly, Starfish felt dizzy and fainted from the pollution in the water. “Starfish! Wake up!” cried Turtle, Clownfish, Dolphin, and the baby whale. “I know a healer who can help!” Clownfish said. “Let’s go to their house!” Scene 6: The friends swam quickly to the healer’s house. “Hello, are you home?” they called. The healer opened the door. “What’s wrong, little ones?” he asked kindly. “Please help! Starfish is poisoned from the plastic in the ocean,” said Turtle. The healer let them in and treated Starfish, who soon woke up. “Thank you for saving me,” Starfish said gratefully. The healer said, “This is happening because people are careless. They throw trash everywhere without thinking about the consequences. The ocean is polluted, coral reefs are dying, and fish are losing their homes. If people don’t change, they will hurt themselves too.” Scene 7: As they swam back home, they were amazed to see that the ocean was clean again! The humans had worked together to pick up the trash and clean the ocean! “Wow, the ocean is beautiful again!” Dolphin exclaimed. “There are still humans who care about the environment,” Clownfish said happily. “Thank you, kind humans!” they all cheered. And from that day on, the ocean stayed clean and beautiful!

I love my tablet. I love playing games and watching videos. I love it so much I take it everywhere and use it all the time. My mummy does not like my tablet. She thinks I use it too much. She only thinks that because she never had a tablet when she was young. Today, I went to use my tablet and the power turned off. I couldn’t play any games. I couldn’t watch any videos, and my tablet was dying. What in the world am I to do? I’ll die of boredom for sure. Five minutes without my tablet and I was pacing the floor. I just don’t know what to do. Mummy walks by, and simply says “Go outside.” Go OUTSIDE? Is she out of her mind? I’ll get itchy, and dirty. And it’s SO HOT! No way. I can’t do that. Mummy starts to go on and on about how she would play when she was young but that doesn’t change my mind at all. Besides, she has so much to say about how she used to play but I don’t see her going outside. “Come,” She said. “Let me show you what it was like in the good ole’ days.” Mummy took me outside and my skin started to melt off my bones. The grass was already pricking my skin, and a rock rolled right into my Crocs. Mummy didn’t mind any of my cries, and started to show us all the joys of her old life. That day, we climbed the mango tree until my sister Jana scraped her knee. We played hopscotch on the concrete using rocks to draw on the street. Daddy taught us how to shoot marbles in the dirt. Johnny lost and was very hurt. We made mud-pies and fed them to all the guys. We spinned and sang to the beat of our own drum, There’s a brown girl in the ring. Sha-la-la-la-la. There’s a brown girl in the ring sha-la-la-la-la. There’s a brown girl in the ring sha-la-la-la-la. And she looks like a sugar and a plum, plum, PLUM. So soon, it was time to go inside. Mummy picked the prickles off of my pants as I tried not to cry. The power was back on, but it was not as fun. Mummy was really right about them good ole’ days.

She moves through places time forgot, Where iron bleeds and hinges rot. Most would turn and walk away, But love, you choose to stay. You run your hands along the rust, Not with disdain, but quiet trust. You do not flinch, you do not fear— You know that beauty lingers here. A broken chain, a weathered nail, A lock long lost to rain and hail— You lift them up, you see their worth, You press them back into the earth. And love, I watch—I always do, Not just the work, but all of you. How in your touch, the wreckage glows, How even ruin somehow knows. That rust is not the end of things, But proof of all the time they’ve seen. That love is not untouched, unscarred, But something worn, yet standing hard. So if I break, if I erode, If time should wear me to the bone— I know with you, I won’t decay,
