Shark

 Stealthy, deadly hunter
 Swiftly moves beneath waves
 Searching for its next meal
 Swimmers become its prey
 Surfers are attacked too
 Sharp teeth cut like razor
 So beware of those Jaws!!

Yes, sharks are swift and always searching. Being in the water is enjoyable, yet frightening all at the same time. Every letter beginning with ' S ' is very creative. I enjoyed that. My best to you, Joseph. :) Hugs, Brandy

Ah love this dear joseph. Made me think of my experiences with sharks here in maldives. They are usually friendly and never attacks swimmers. And during the lockdown, when i stayed in water room, i befriended some, they would always come at night cus i used to feed them. And we have many sharks even in shallow waters but they are friendly. But i know most sharks around the world arent the same family. Brilliant one! I loved this!

This is an exciting poem about a ruthless predator that kills people but that everyone seems to love. Poem is a good reference to the movie JAWS. It's a very good poem.

Darn it… I was just gonna go for a paddle… strangely the water looks a little too chilly. Enjoyed your Shark tale, Joseph.
