Dinos* in the lagoon
Emit light at night
When they're agitated
Say by a probing stick.
The tour's in a canoe or
Boat using electric motor
A visit's exciting to one of
Three lagoons in Peurto Rico.
The surrounding mangrove
Provides the nutrients
For dinos the organisms
To live, grow and thrive.
Felling of trees around,
Polluting the waters'll
Kill the fragile dinos and
Magic of light'll be lost.
Bioluminescent bays are
some of nature's treasures
It's our duty to preserve and
Guard our nature's wonders.
*dinos is short form for organisms called Dinoflagellates
