Fishing
The Joy of living in rural Scotland is fishing.
Fishing and hunting are pleasures for Scots
Fishing is the bounty of the healthy oceans
Fish that often begin in our Scottish rivers
Spawned as just wee tiddlers they travel
Fish that travel the world on an adventure
Before they return to Scotland to have mates
We have often teeming Scottish fish shoals
Yet the world of sea is now filled with plastic
Plastic everywhere - Everywhere is plastics
big and wee plastic bottles in the ocean
micro even more micro plastic bubbles
they wee fish eat up all the micro plastics
with the big fish gorging on the big plastic
The fish get chocked and die on the plastic
So many of the Scottish fish die of plastic
So many of the Scottish Wild Salmon before
Now a trickle that may soon even be extinct
All for this modern city live that kills for progress
This idyllic life of Rural Scotland threatened by plastic
