The Guessing Poem

I have a sweet little stomach and a mouth that sometimes glows. Finger-like tentacles too, no eyes, no neck, no chin or nose. Ready to guess? Okay then, I can live in your stomach or the sea. Three hints. Hydra. Sea Anemones, corals. A polyp is the name for me!

Ha! Good one...I would think that Anemones would tickle while a Hydra might devour you, inside-out. Oh well, I thoroughly enjoyed the read.

Thank you. I came across the word and loved the idea of making a poem out of a polyp.
