Cracked Iceberg

Chubby cream grubby against white ice
      Hungry somewhat clumsy polar bear heist
      Hopefully loping over to an asylum of seals
      Tusked beasts bound to become tasty meals
      

      Damp nose oscillates, catch tongue anticipates
      Hook claws extend, jagging his cumbersome gait
      Ungainly angle rotates blundering bear ballerina
      Jaws roar frustrated, mishap sadly signals dinner
     

      Jolly bodied, barrel stocky well insulated brood
      Swivel protruding chests to avoid being food
      Fear pulls polar threat away, phew! - Relax
      Pack pacify, raft drifts after cold cracks

 
      Snowy blows his nose with hankie huge paws
      Lucky that chubby has arms strong as oars
      Iceberg dips, whiskers twitch while wishing
      Imminent swim success - in frigid fishing
