The Amazon
The Amazon
By C. Russell
Water flowing fiercely
Blue and green and brown;
I’m wanting to see clearly
Through your liquid gown!
The Armoured Catfish wriggles
Through the sticky mud.
Arapaima gliding,
Splashing with a thud!
The Tambaqui quietly
Searches for a seed
From the nearby rubber tree;
A giant fish indeed!
Pancake stingrays dancing
A watery ballet,
Piranhas darting here and there,
Inviting you to stay!
The electric Eel,
What can I say?
Don’t get too close,
Or you will pay!
