Sharks

The sharks in Hawai'i Just love a good feast Fresh from Japan Or somewhere back East There's always the cost - An arm or a leg - But natives will carve you A coconut peg So jump in the ocean! Its really a thrill To watch baby sharks Share their first kill!

If people would make the time to "know their enemy", they would find sharks are easy to get along with if one doesn't tempt them. Aloha! Rico

Humans infesting shark’s waters, paying an arm and a leg for their trouble. ;), xomo!

Thanks to Donald Trump, MILLIONS fewer tourists muddy the waters of Waikiki, so reef fish have returned with sharks to feed on the fish, hence sharks have been sighted every day of the past fortnight in Waikiki, and everyone complains because sharks don't spend money! Aloha! Rico
