Pretty In Pink
Pretty in Pink
There was a time I felt the urge
To venture in the Amazon
To see a mammal at the dawn
A dolphin pink in water fresh
To gaze and watch it’s morning thresh
So solitary in this wild
To feed on turtles, shrimp and crabs
Born as gray as time moved on
And changed to pink translucent skin
Among the species they excel
releasing sound to seek their food
A Capybara lifts it’s head
To watch as it begins to rise
To flow the dorsal ridge about
Then flail around and then submerge
Rain Forest graced with such aplomb
An Orinoco majesty
Dolphins Contests
