Underwater life so mesmerizing,
The majestic creatures so tantalizing,
The colourful fish teaming,
As if parading, a shoal obediently following,
Almost everywhere coolly swimming,
Now under the giant sea weeds, so mindboggling,
And then in the giant corals’ crevasses.
Such a variety of creatures, oysters and lobsters
Eels, sea snakes and oh! The gentle, playful dolphins!
We just have to be prudent with the sea urchins.
.
Scuba diving is so very soul elevating,
Snorkelling is equally discovering this dream alluring,
The crystal-clear water of the azure blue sea so transporting!
Wow! What a dreamland on the seabed,
The giant corals in shapes and colours variegated,
And looking up above, the huge sharks, the whales,
Lord! Such a fascinating different world!
All of them sharing this unfathomable world,
While we human beings are busy, being busy,
Almost relishing the destruction of our own species…
We need to learn from the creatures of the deep,
Yes, from these marvels of the deep!
