The waves are pushing,
pulling
side by side,
up and down
under the gloomy sky
the herrings flying
above the surface
of a disturbed paradise
and who's there to catch them?
Only those stray seagulls
in the wide and selfish sky.
There was a fisherman
casted his fishnets
during a neap tide storm
sadly the fishes went hiding
just before he came
what a poor catch
he just picked mussels
for tomorrow's breakfast.
Wind blows along the shore
two little puffers went offshore
sadly one of them lost its way
like a balloon trying to inflate
badly, loses its' breath
poor little pupper deflated
and down to the shoreline
found its unlucky fate.
Hurricane busted the ocean door
dolphins heading down to the ocean floor
cuties and calves nowhere to hide
they just stick on their mother's side
to ease the frightened little calves
humpback whales kept singin' lullabies.
Hush little kiddos don't be terrified
all the storms in the ocean soon subside
tonight might be cold and dark
wait for tomorrow's sun to spark
soon you'll see the great blue sky
and we'll dance from morning 'til night.
