Poem
Humpback beauties call to their young Communicating to calves so precious Don't be so immediately audacious You can wander, just don't go too long Blubberous parents are there to keep them close For companionship, warmth and learning Send each other many signals, the little one is yearning Because of the ocean they want to make the most Eating their fill of plankton and krill The smaller babe makes a hydro sonic point To the older one who loves this oceanic joint He doesn't want to hurt or kill The humans who eavesdrop on their descant Like some other whales with mammoth choppers Accidentally maiming overboard fishermen and surfers These watery wonders are appreciated that's all they ever want Imbibing benevolent attention only for half a century Deep sea divers first decided to bring down equipment When he spoke his special song, they had no idea what the male bull meant That day being approached he was so hesitant and on sentry Because whalers before had waited for them to breach The surface for mere minutes finding some oxygen Finding instead a foreboding air of danger without question So reclusive they remain, staying out of reach Beaching is another danger when whales will cry For help they so need it and must be rolled back out A benign thing on sand dangerously sprawled about Back into the depths it should be before it go dry Nature's biggest mammals can never be at rest In the wild and bountiful marine, using fluked tales to swim around Whales have a lot to say, their stories abound In civilized society with whale translators today we are at our best Making compact discs of them, something special we can keep The arias of the ocean composed of many shores Whales speak responding in the ripples as prophets do with lore It works quite well for some, to lull ourselves to sleep We should always stay in assonance.
