An Ode for LSR




Lower Seletar Reservoir,
a place of natural beauty,
a biodiversity for flora and fauna,
a gift from Mother Nature.
You give joy to those around you,
as you spread your arms and welcome those who visit your lovely abode.



Butterflies flitting in and out of plants,
playing a fun game of hide and seek.
Plants swaying in the breeze,
whispering to one another.
Laughter abounding from the water,
as paddles are splashed through in a friendly kayaking race.



Alas,
how long can this last?
Imagine,
the water a black sludge full of rubbish.
What beauty,
is there left for future generations to appreciate?

The reservoir begs you,
cries out to you,
please take good care of me.
Let Singapore,
be able to fulfil its vision of,
Active,
Beautiful,
Clean,
water for all!
