In the Sea

If I’d been born a whale No happier could I be Swimming, splashing, spy hopping Roaming the open sea If I’d been born a lobster No happier could I be Crawling along the ocean floor Living in the sea If I’d been born a seahorse No happier could I be Swimming among the rocks and plants At the bottom of the sea But I was born a human and No happier could I be Because I can swim in the ocean And see what’s in the sea
