Crossing many seas
From far far away
Through rocky oceans
And stormy skies, and spray
There are no rules
To which they have to comply
No reasons are given
Or questions of why?
No passports, or visas
Do they carry
And none of them
Are likely to marry
Yet we are happy
To be their host
As they eventually drift in
Along our short coast
The only danger they face
Is being covered in jellies
Then eaten with bread
To fill our comfortable bellies

Yet we are happy
To be their host
As they eventually drift in
Along our short coast
The only danger they face
Is being covered in jellies

just in case there's any confusion, this poem's theme is about Eels, but also about why is it okay for animal life to come to this little island, but not people seeking refuge,or a new life?
