I put on my aqua-lung and dive, Exploring there I see a giant tortoise plunge to the coral reef, Just missing a lonely lobster gliding across the sand. I hide from a fearsome shark, sniffing the water for blood. A crawling crayfish scuttles away. I come to an angry octopus squirting its enemy with ink. Swaying seaweed hide sleeping starfish. A fluttering flounder quickly swims by in pursuit of a sliding seal. But too soon the bitter cold wraps around me like a blanket and pulls me to the surface. Back to the ordinary world.
This is a poem I found that I wrote when I was 8. I just like the ending.
