If I was to live under water, perchance

A dolphin may ask me for a dance

Or I just might find romance

In a flat-fish’s upward glance

 

A squid may get riled and squirt

Black ink on my underwater shirt

But then a wrasse may come and flirt

And clean my shirt of ink and dirt

 

I may find an eel or two

Who extend a welcome true

Or meet a mermaid in the blue

Who snuggles and says,

    I love you too
