Assignment 3 – The Nitrogen and Phosphorus Poem

Take a trip with nitrogen,

The atmosphere its origin.

Converts to nitrate as fertilizer,

That’s how it enters biosphere.

 

When it rains, the water drains,

Into stream, more nutrients it gains.

Algae bloom, block sunlight in view,

Deplete oxygen, life to slew.

 

The cycle repeats for phosphorus,

It builds, repairs, cells made flawless.

In rocks and soap and laundry detergents,

It’s also a foe to marine environments.

 

Time to put our actions together,

Plant shrubs and trees and more sunflowers.

Spread the word to increase awareness,

The world’ll be a better place, I promise.
