{{{{{{{{{{{{ }}}}}}}}}}}} {{{{{{{{{{{{{ }}}}}}}}}}}}} Strange Unicorn of the Sea, we solved your mystery. Of Arctic Ocean fame you are Narwhal as named. Unicorn of Sea, our fascination crept for secrets you had kept about tusk's outside nerves; what uses do they serve? {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{ Allows you to communicate. A great aid to seek a mate. The perfect sword to joust; the feared enemies to oust. Safest water space ensures by measuring temperatures and the water pressure too, gauges spaces to get thru. Long pick to break the ice; an excellent, sharp device. Pinpoint your hidden prey- use a sensory-based way. You measure out at sea; saline levels guarantee. Survival tools evolved, so the puzzle's solved. }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Deep ocean mystery our Unicorn of Sea, you are Narwhal by name with firm Arctic Ocean fame. | | N A R W H A L | | | | September 19, 2015
~1st Place~ Contest: A Strand (1045) Sponsor: Brian Strand Judged: 01/04/2022 ~8th Place~ Premiere Contest: Dandelions Tiger Lilies and Bearberries - Oh My Sponsor: Maureen McGreavy Judged: 05/25/2018 ~4th Place~ Contest: Impress Me With A Narwhal Poem Sponsor: Skat A Judged: 10/27/2015 NOTE: A Narwhal tusk is really a tooth that grows long like a tusk. Recent findings proved that a Narwhal's tusk has many sensory nerves on the outside and the enamel part is in the center – the opposite of most mammals' teeth. Some scientists say that these nerves can sense or do all the things I list in my poem. Some say that they are not sure. So, it is not finally decided yet.
