Artist Statement
In the deep blue sea, there swims a whale,
With a tail so big, and a belly so pale,
It's a gentle giant, with a heart of gold,
And stories of its adventures, have been told.
It breaches the waves, with a mighty splash,
And then dives deep, to search for krill to stash,
Its song is heard, for miles around,
A symphony of sound, that astounds.
It's a wonder to behold, this massive beast,
With a mouth so wide, and a size that's increased,
But don't let its size, fool you so,
For it's a funny creature, as you may know.
It likes to play, with dolphins and seals,
And sometimes makes, some pretty wild deals,
Like trading krill, for a bucket of shrimp,
Or doing a trick, for a seaweed strip.
It's a whale of a tale, this creature so rare,
With a sense of humor, beyond compare,
And though it's big, it's gentle too,
A creature of wonder, through and through.
So if you see, a whale in the sea,
Don't be afraid, just let it be,
And maybe, just maybe, it will play,
And bring some joy, to your ocean day.
