Black Beauty

Black like a rare diamond.
Perfectly sculpted.
White as a snowy peek .
Reflecting off the glistening waves.
Your beauty and grace challenge us.
Mostly free, we morn for your captured brothers.
Gliding and leaping through the blue.
Chasing your soul mates protecting your tribe.
Your song is herd for miles deep.
Echoing on the icebergs.
You are magnificent, alluring.
Teasing us with your glance.
Swim far Orca be free

Abigail, I like this poem. Orca's are illusive and mysterious creatures. The US Navy Diving Manual notes: "When killer whales are spotted, all personnel should immediately leave the water. Extreme care should be taken on shore areas, piers, barges, ice floes, etc., when killer whales are in the area. Welcome to the Soup. -Richard
