A
Whale's Confrontation
The
sea looks calm but under the waves
A
mother whale and calf she tries to save
but
too many sharks it's meat they crave
Will
she lose the birth of this calf she gave?
Up
from the deep she forces her way
She's
tired and her young grows weary
As
sharks move closer, their teeth many
Sink
deep into the calf's smooth belly.
The
mother undaunted and full of rage
swings
fiercely her tail as though on a stage
The
shark's loosen their bite with no gauge
of
the massive whale with her size and age.
