What difference could it make?
Dropping a plastic bag,
Leaving a plastic straw,
Throwing away old clothes?
They’ll just flutter away,
Out of sight,
Out of mind.
They will travel
Towards the sea.
And be swept away.
A fish may come closer,
A turtle is curious,
A seal just wants to swim.
The fish gets entangled,
The turtle gets wrangled,
The seal gets trapped.
Dropping a plastic bag,
Leaving a plastic straw,
Throwing away old clothes,
What difference could it make?

Well written and good to note your concern for the environment. A poem on the ocean soup would be a befitting sequel.
