The Great Barrier Reef

I can only imagine 
How it looks from outer-space,
Our world's biggest coral reef;
A huge sapphire sparkling;

I can only imagine
How it feels to go swimming,
Alongside all those life forms;
Who call the Great Reef their home

Someday I hope to visit 
this big beautiful wonder;
then something real is mine ,
There's no need to imagine.
