Orca breaches amid
rolling pellucid waves;
pod accompaniment
as arching bodies play.
blowhole sprays celebrate
in random ecstasy;
ocean’s performance art.
On top of the food chain
Ocean’s great predator
Of dolphins orca’s prime
One clever hunting pod
Outmanoeuvres its prey
Onslaught starts on signal
Over once flesh devoured
Orca breaches amid
oarfish snaking among
oblivious new pod.
Orcan arching bodies
obscure oarfish slithers
on an unseen loner;
ocean’s oldest secret.

Pinnacle predator
Prominently patterned
Primarily pod-based
Prefers porpoise portions
Pretty photogenic
Partially protected
Parasite-prone problems

Black like a rare diamond.
Perfectly sculpted.
White as a snowy peek .
Reflecting off the glistening waves.
Your beauty and grace challenge us.
Mostly free, we morn for your captured brothers.
Gliding and leaping through the blue.
Chasing your soul mates protecting your tribe.
Your song is herd for miles deep.
Echoing on the icebergs.
You are magnificent, alluring.
Teasing us with your glance.
Swim far Orca be free
Form:
Out of the sea, oh Majestic Prince,
In a spray of foam so green.
Into the air in freedom's dance,
A sight that must be seen.
The Orca leaps into the air
Before our eyes... amazed.
So graceful leaping t'wards the sun.
With joyful hearts, we gazed.
He skims along the ocean green
Then leaps before our view.
One of God's most majestic beasts,
He lifts our hearts anew.
