lively lumbering lions
meandering muscular mammoths
nightfall’s notorious newts
oscillating ornery octopi
playful plushy platypus
quintessential quibbling quail
responsibly respecting restless reptiles

Ocean - a Pleiades

Over pelagic reefs,
oscillating waters
obfuscate sunken fetes. 
Octopi tango while
oarfish flash titian fins. 
Opulent paradise:
oblivious to us.

Zapholus was once his name One and alone since the storm Empty oceans, without claim Nestled him where he was borne Octopi then made him strong Round he grew, and twice as long Mates he saw on a beach Attacked a male to them reach Now you know the sea lion's song

Ocean Life

Octopi and cousin squid
Cetaceans roam free
Echinoderms with many arms
And lest we forget the spiraled
Nautili, wonderous creatures

Living lives in an alien world,
Instead of polluting more we need to
Fix the damage already done so
Every creature can survive
