there was a little dolphin he got lost at sea
he miles away from his family
caught up in a storm that was far to strong
took him from the place that he did belong
dolphin he was sad and he began to cry
noticed by a whale who was passing by
dolphin told the whale how he had got lost
and into the storm the dolphin he was tossed
whale he said dont worry i know what to do
i  will guide you back to the home that you once knew
whale he led the way to get  the dolphin back
when suddenly he saw some dolphins in a pack
he had found the place where dolphin he should be
happy once again with his family
dolphin thanked the whale for all that he had done
and swam of with his family underneath the sun

Did you see the dolphin with hands?
They grew from fins
and now he flips cakes,
serving them up for dozens of fans.

Did you see the dolphin with hands?
His keepers were shocked
when they saw the fingers,
long and gray with nails on the ends.

Did you see the dolphin with hands?
He can juggle, he can fight,
there is no one that he can’t smite.
Oh, and he makes houses out of sand.

Did you see the dolphin with hands?
Scientists are baffled,
doctors confused, because dolphins
shouldn’t be able to play in hair metal bands.

Did you see the dolphin with hands?
His name is Finn, despite the lack of them,
and he is a mutant fish
who can flip pans.

FINFIN THE DOLPHIN

Poor Fin Fin, once was Fred's  favourite  toy dolphin;

But was now sadly rejected; and lying in a dustbin.

Thrown out it was because a drunk servant fed it a little gin.

A small rag-picker boy,  picked it up; from the dustbin.

washing it, wiping it;  now made it look new and clean.

As he was walking past a river, in it fell poor FinFin.

Sad was the lad, this was really bad; for now drowned FinFin.

A man, consoling him said, "grow n come up one day will, this dolphin".

Come Danny, would daily, our lil boy, to look for his FinFin.

To his astonishment great, one day he saw a big dolphin.

With glee he cried, as he saw it,  " look, here's my dear FinFin".

Days went by, with some food, he would daily feed FinFin;

Throw a ball at it, he would n return it back, would the dolphin.

Gathered people now to see this play; giving him money, in a bin.

Happily jump,  dance and spin around would,  FinFin .

During one such act, along with the ball, fell the lad as he did over-lean.

Promptly picked him up and brought him safely back, our cute FinFin.

Friends for ever they became; lil Danny and our cute FinFin, the dolphin.

Antonia is such a good swimmer,
She often swims in the sea,
Where she met a friendly dolphin,
Who she invited back for tea.

There were plates of jam sandwiches,
Ice-cream, with jelly in a fancy dish,
Vanilla slices and chocolate cake,
Oh, and of course, lots of fish.

Then the dolphin shared a story,
Of a far off-distant land,
Even though his voice was very squeaky,
Antonia could easily understand.

The story told of mermaids,
Magic songs upon their lips,
Their singing enticing sailors,
From the rigging and decks of ships.

Though, the sailors were not harmed,
Only enchanted in a drowsy sleep,
Dreaming in the mermaid kingdom,
Beneath the ocean cool and deep.

The mermaids made a prophecy,
Of the sailors promised release,
When mankind stopped all wars,
And had learned to live in peace.

Antonia thought, ‘how very wise’,
Watching waves upon the sea,
From the beach, she waved goodbye,
To the dolphin who came for tea.

Donnie was a dolphin he was lost at sea
sonar sense had failed very lost was he
he had no direction no way of getting round
donnie he was hoping that he would be found

he drifted for a while as the waves they tossed
now knowing where to go Donnie he was lost
he was calling out with his dolphin sound
hoping maybe someone just might be around

donnie he was sad and began to cry
spotted by a whale who was passing by
dont worry said the whale i know what to do
hang to my tale ill be your guide for you

donnie grabbed his tale whale he swam away
guiding Donnie to his home where he used to stay
Donnie he was happy home again once more
with dolphin friends where he was before

whale he waved good bye to his dolphin friend
a lovely dolphin tale with an happy end

I effortless pass through water
like gliding through a silky air.
And as you all sail through life
you all sparkle with the idea
of being near.
As I am ultimate wisdom that
comes in the form of joy and play.
As the decks are silent splashes of
water all over your faces.
Then suddenly you all cry,
" THE DOLPHINS ARE HEAR"
A tingly excitement every where
as though walking on a bubbly
carpet.

Everyone congregating at the
side of the boat hoping to catch
a bit of magic.
Gasps and shrills as bounce and
burst out of the water along side
your boat.
People stretching reaching as I offer
a new hope the light of GOD.
And when they return to the shore the
story of the Dolphins like church bells
ringing travels through the town.
As everyone longs for Holy spirit they
are eager to hear the story.
As they learn about the Dolphin
that came to there town they want to
know who actually touched it.

I am the spirit that visits the holy as
I love those who are full but also
empty.
I come to those brought to the edge
who stared down the cliff  
but did not jump, as they chose life.
And to those who's world said no with
all doors closed because only they can
listen.
I come to those who have lost all will because
only those let me carry them.
I come to those who are broken
as only they can be molded  
I bring you many colours and inspiration
sometimes I will make you dance and
sometimes sing.
I am the Pentacost,  holy Ghost and your
Jesus Christs holy spirit.

Sometimes when you swim softly through
sweet watery emotion you will hear us talking.
When you think all is lost
you find yourself praying
even though you think no one is there
I will be listening.
Feel like you are drowning grab my
dorsal fin and I will give you a lift
even make you laugh, make it fun
even exciting.
Lost at sea sharks prowling I will circle you
as I will even fend of death for as I can
also heal you.  

Some will pen me in keep me in a
small tank tech me a childish trick
and manipulate.
But only those bigger than pools
more like the sea will know I have
greater tricks to teach.
As only those without plan and expectation
can ever swim with me.
As I will guide you on your hearts
adventure into the free.  

We will always love and seek to guide
you as we look for you in the sea and
gather around you in the bay.
We will teach you how to channel to
have an open mind to breath spirit
through your head.
And I will teach you how to be both
the radio and the wave.
How to be father Christmas, the chimney
and the presents underneath the tree.
So if you are needing help please
look over hear we are listening.
let yourself be empty and we will guide you.

There is so much to learn from communicating
and swimming with the Gods spirit, the Dolphin.
So let us connect with God heaven and the Dolphin
And be grateful for all her LOVE.

there was a little dolphin he lived in the sea
swimming in the ocean so wild and very free
one day when he was swimming he heard a little yell
where the sound was coming from he really could not tell
he moved a little closer with is sonar sense
searching in the **** so very thick and dense
then he saw a turtle crying in the ****
poor chap was stuck in between the reed
dolphin he was clever and and knew just what to do
hang on to my tail said he said and i will pull you through
turtle he was glad and no longer in the ****
dolphin he was happy now that he was freed

Sunlight on the sea
       The curved fin of a dolphin
              A lone cloud observes

i wish i was a dolphin if only for a day
with his spirit free as he begins to play
swimming in the ocean having lots of fun
in the sea so blue underneath the sun.

making people happy with my cheeky smile
i wish i was a dolphin if only for a while

Poor dolphin

whoops wrong poem

there was a little dolphin a friendly chap was he
he lived far away in the deep blue sea
he just loved to play underneath the sun
jumping in the air having lots of fun.

doing lots of tricks somersaults and roll
he was very clever a happy little soul
oneday while he was swimming
he heard a little cry somewhere in the water
somewhere near by.

he saw a little turtle he was in distress
caught up in a net he was such a mess
dolphin he was clever and knew what to do
in to the tangled net  he began to chew.
till he made a hole so turtle could get through.

turtle he was free to swim again once more
happy and content as he was before
turtle thanked the dolphin for all that he had done
they swam away together underneath the sun

there was a little badger he was adventure bound
he built himself a boat from a log upon the ground
he packed a little case with things that he might need
and took along some food so he could have a feed
setting out to sea he set himself afloat
out in the deep blue sea in his little boat
underneath the sun on summers day
badger he was happy as he sailed away
he came across an island with a big palm tree
then got a little nearer so that he could see
he walked along the sand of the island shore
a place that he had found and never been before
suddenly he saw a dolphin near by
he looked very sad and began to cry
badger asked the dolphin was there something wrong
i have been washed up  he said the tide was far to strong
badger he was clever and got his little boat
then he towed the dolphin and set him back afloat
dolphin he was happy he was back at sea
he could swim again now that he was free
dolphin thanked the badger and both sailed away
now they are still friends to this very day

little bille ****** he just long to be

a captain of a ship sailing on the sea

he gathered up some wood and built himself a boat

then into the water and set himself afloat.



he headed out to sea adventure bound was he

the captain of his boat liked he longed to be

suddenly a dolphin jumped in to the air

****** he was startled gave him quite scare.



dolphin said hello sorry for the scare

didnt mean to frighten you didnt see you there

can i be your friend said dolphin and come along with you

of they went together in the sea of blue.



after quite some the weather made a change

started getting rough acting very strange

then the winds were howling waves were very high

it began to thunder with lightening in the sky.



then a great big wave over turned the boat

****** he was trapped and couldnt get afloat

dont worry said the dolphin just hang on to me

hang on to my tale and i will set you free.



dolphin pulled and pulled and freed his little friend

****** thought his journey was about to end

then the storm subsided it was calm once more

they pulled the little boat safely to the shore.



they rebuilt the boat and set sail once more

now the boat could sail again like it did before

now they both were happy and safely back a sea

friends for evermore both of them would be.

The Dolphins came to heal me
They didn’t know it wasn’t meant to be
They circled me & brushed pass my legs
I felt their healing but I could not receive it
Wounded hearts do not heal
Broken dreams do not soar
Crushed spirits do not forgive

The dolphins came again
This time with a heart to replace mine
They put it in place of the old
They swam away with the old
The new heart felt good inside
I could heal
I could soar
And I could forgive

Some years later the dolphins came again
They came with another heart yet again
I was to take care of it
I was thrilled
I was happy looking after it, for a while

The dolphins came again some years later
To check how I was doing with the extra heart
It was too much work and so I gave it back to  them
They were sad as they swam away

I looked out at sea one day after many a lonely years
Longing for the healing of the dolphins
One dolphin came up to me and said
“My heart is all I have to give”
I did not know if I should take it
Just as I was pondering, another dolphin swam by and said
“Try again”
I took it and tried to love again

It was better this time
I did not deceive myself and I let it be
Two hearts were better I thought
Then, what about another two, the dolphin asked
I took them and cared and shared
And today I have six hearts to behold….
The dolphins smiled and waved goodbye….

The moon's rays shine under the ocean,
The beautiful blue waves are in motion,
There is a full moon tonight;
And it is shining beautiful and bright.
The beautiful fishes are swimming under the ocean,
Listen to the sound of the ocean,
All kinds of ocean plants are growing under the waves;
I love the moonlit rays.
There's only a slight sunset in the sky,
A shooting star falls from way up high,
Little twinkling stars light the dark sky;
It is so beautiful I begin to cry.
Oh I love this enchanting scene,
Everything is so beautiful just like a dream,
This place is beautiful beyond belief;
This beautiful place called Dolphin Reef.

*~Marian~

i like to watch the dolphins swimming in the sea
they are always happy as friendly as can be
they are very clever intelligence galore
just to watch the dolphins is something i adore.

they always make me smile whenever there around
with there great big smile and there dolphin sound
such a lovely creature swimming wild and free
just to watch the dolphins mean so much to me

now not anymore
the Island that isn’t
a loneliness but
Choice without being
There we were sitting and
The Sea was coming and
We (me and you) – a gorgeous staple,
Hooked,
were creating and
we saw him (after years and years) how
he was entering
like a rainbow huge
unattainable and
slow
brown – like a beam
(to hold for it)
nonpoetry - the other one is breakable
when the meaning they wave –
a hand of an insane man before a mirror
nongame – the game is dead
after Joyce and like a child is screaming
for the sandy tower after an adult
(a cynical stone) carelessly and with no reason
forded through
the dolphin is a life vital
and his existence aside of the genesis
and whole in the sea and whole
is reflected
nonliterature – the literature is dead
implicated into shape and ad of
the language but
where is here the Rapture
of the dolphin – glamour
oh forgive me I am entering
a someone else’s territory
I am not a ventriloquist too
I do not practice knowledge
there’s nothing new here each
new is unnamed
a vital place without a place
in a movement moveable
smooth like blue
fused in a deep bare
white

i saw dolphins dancing while i was out at sea
stood up on there tails dancing wild and free
dancing in a circle  going round and round
talking to each other in there dolphin sound
they looked very happy just dancing in the sea
happy and content as happy as can be
every one in unison just putting on a show
just to watch them dance gave my heart a glow.

there was a little badger  adventure bound was he
he built himself a boat from a fallen tree
he packed a little case with things that he might need
and took along some food so he could have a feed.

setting out to sea he set himself afloat
out in the deep blue sea in his little boat
underneath the sun on summers day
badger he was happy as he sailed away.

he came across an island with a big palm tree
then got a little nearer so that he could see
he walked along the sand of the island shore
a place that he had found and never been before.

suddenly he saw a dolphin near by
he looked very sad and began to cry
badger asked the dolphin was there something wrong
i have been washed up  he said the tide was far to strong.

badger he was clever and got his little boat
then he towed the dolphin and set him back afloat
dolphin he was happy he was back at sea
he could swim again now that he was free.
,
dolphin thanked the badger and both sailed away
now they are still friends to this very day

little Tommy tortoise he was getting bored
he booked himself a holiday and took a trip abroad
he packed up lettuce leaves so that he could eat
for a little snack this was his favorite treat
landed in Hawaii and headed for the sand
ready for some fun in this foreign land
he came across a turtle swimming in the sea
looking just like Tommy a relative was he
they swam along together underneath the sun
splashing in the water enjoying all the fun
suddenly they saw a dolphin near by
then he said hello with his dolphin cry
dolphin he joined in and began to play
happy as can be as they played away
he took them for a ride on his dolphin tail
out into the ocean he began to sail
then he took them back to where they were before
back to where they started along the sandy shore
dolphin had to go it was time for tea
he waved and said goodbye then back in to the sea
Tommy he was happy so was turtle too
having lots of fun in the sea so blue
Tommy had enjoyed his little holiday
it brought him lots of happiness and his boredom went away

i was all alone sailing out to sea
when suddenly a dolphin came to visit me
he was lonely too  and needed company

then he said hello with his dolphin sound
he seemed very happy now friend he found
swimming there beside me as happy as can be
he had been so lonely just the same as me.

we began to play having so much fun
in the deep blue sea underneath the sun
he did lots of tricks there were quite a few
then leaped in to air just like dolphins do'.

now we had each other and had company
and to this very day he means the world to me
