What’s in the air that we can’t feel
     And cannot even see?
Yet, even though you'll hear no sound,
     It’s there for you and me.

​

Without it fires would soon go out
     And living things would die.
It lives in both the sea and earth,
     And up there in the sky.

​

It’s vital for the health of all;
    Without it we’d be dead.
Our hearts are pumping it around
    And through our veins it’s fed.

​

The subject, yes, is oxygen - 
     And for all of us, it's free.
All living things depend on it,
      Including plants and trees.   

​

Our bodies are filled to the brim 
    With this essential fuel.
You use it when you play at home
    And whilst you learn at school.

​

It’s lucky that upon this earth
    We have a good supply
And, whilst you think about these facts,
    I’ll wish you all goodbye.
