a dolphin i hardly knew
a pot of jellyfish stew
a seahorse swims by
a beer barreled pie
a deep sea fish barbecue.
I came across a coral reef
a seahorse glimpsed
sudden taste for beef
a pregnant pause
'pon gulping down
that dainty horse
~ all fifteen pounds
There was once a seahorse named Henry
Oceanrider was he for he roamed slovenry
He met Mustany Sally
To change he did not dally
For she was dish told of in heathenry
seahorses... wonders
a live endangered treasure...
pollution will kill...

In the night sky, so mysterious,
Canis Major’s star Sirius;
Even when the ground is chilly,
Grows the romantic Spider Lily;
He’s charging through the sea by force,
It’s the mighty majestic Seahorse.
Sea horse mania is afoot
I see them in my sleep
Thanks to a collector daughter
They prance and neigh
Ridiculous I think
There is loud laughter
A splash from my water glass
Two land on my bedside table
Seahorse princess dove down into the depths of the sea
She was loving it so, feeling pretty, wild, wiggly and free
The seahorse she rode was almost as full of glee
They were true companions, soulmates you see
He is the most gorgeous seahorse in south side bay.
His colors are enriched and lively, his ambiance is gay.
He wears his designs in the freshest, fanciest new way.
We follow him with our camera, not knowing what to say.
My pet seahorse Brenda was blond,
She loved a poor fish in the pond;
He was not aware of this,
And so he took her amiss,
When in his big tummy she spawned.

Snazzy seahorse shimmering and showy
Sashaying in succulent southern seas
Seen by several serious sea-gazers
Solidly shifting and shrinking - simply scintillating!
A silhouette of shimmering scales
Snazzy seahorse shimmering and showy
Reflecting light within the smoothness,
Surrounded all by foam,
The sea was making sandy wet
And salt was in the air.
A serpent form cloud was changing hue,
Now its' shape a seahorse large,
The visions too were fairly 'bout,
One circuit now complete.
Listen to poem:
see the seesaw sea
send its waves to rock
the barrel stave wooden seahorse
to and fro, askew and slow
though I'm feeling
skew-whiff in the waddle
and iffy sickly not well
I think I'll stay
riding the bare-back bronco
to whittle the whiles away
letting the be, what's may
till the break of day
each one
a diamond in a jeweler's box
a planet unto itself
the seahorse planet
the clown fish kingdom
the eels hideaway
the deep
features a godiva
box of chocolates
it was
hilarious the way
they go on invisible highways
a community of barbers
doctors, hairdressers, cops
and children at play
I need a chameleon’s eyes if you ask me
so I can see in both directions simultaneously
you say seahorses can do this too?
Who knew? who Knew?
now I have a choice to make.
little at stake, my mind on bake.
chameleon or seahorse? Which one to be?
chameleon, who can turn colors you see.
an artist like me, an artist like me.
have you seen the mermaid beauty
who swims down in the deep blue sea
never any troubles
in her world of bubbles
quite happy fancy and so free
she swims wherever she wishes
with seahorse whale and crayfishes
with sparkling raven hair
that just flows everywhere
chasing the fresh seafood dishes

I am
A curious seahorse
Of copper and evergreen
Skittering past
Gaping jaws
Of a killer whale
An angry crawdad
Clicking my
Castanet claws
At sandaled toes
Gliding by
A scrambled message
On a cellular phone
With whirs and clicks
Baffling the receiver
But concealing an SOS
To look into my
Stained glass eyes
Is to see the quiver
Of an empty heart.
Zittle was a seahorse so brittle
Zen had to coax him to cuittle
A predawn dance
On sea-grass fence
Zen said "your eggs are very tittle"

Pure possibility plays
Among the shorter shelves.
Here can be quickly glanced,
Quite easily, per chance:
Glittering, spinning castles,
With multi-colored shrubs;
Space-suited clowns,
Juggling throwing stars;
A grinning seahorse bobbing
Weightless in thin air;
Alleys winding dark and light,
With neon-green monsters;
Kindly white-haired grandpas,
Speaking distant dialects.
Like a father
I am security
I don't bother
I just survive
I must suffer
For this world
I must carry on
For my girl
To survive...
I take the blows
Life won't give in
Why should I?
Will I ever win?
Who the hell knows?
I won't give up
Just one more blow
That's the stuff
All the struggles
All the hate
It's a lifetime
It was fate
It is sacred
It is scary
I must make it
I must carry
If I’d been born a whale
No happier could I be
Swimming, splashing, spy hopping
Roaming the open sea
If I’d been born a lobster
No happier could I be
Crawling along the ocean floor
Living in the sea
If I’d been born a seahorse
No happier could I be
Swimming among the rocks and plants
At the bottom of the sea
But I was born a human and
No happier could I be
Because I can swim in the ocean
And see what’s in the sea
How do you play patty cake with a seahorse this tall?
I had seen it before but could not explain the process at all.
Let’s hide behind this coral reef, and maybe it will happen I said.
The first few things that floated by were gross, sticky, and clearly dead.
Are you sure there is a seahorse here?
Yes, and a mermaid too, I saw them both quite clear.
We waited until our tanks were almost out of air.
Finally patty cake game happened between mermaid and sea mare.
Rock little seahorse
Down under the blue
Rock 'till a new moon
Brings love back to you
Without any hoofs
And a shell for a tail
Rock little seahorse
Let new love prevail
You were left in the ashes
Of romance and ruin
Stuck on a storm shore
That was your undoing
But love is eternal
So why do you cry
Living in sorrow
When love says goodbye
Life is a carnival
Filled with delights
So, find a new sea horse
And rock away this bleak night
Turtle cruises the reef,
turquoise warm in the sun;
tendrils of coral stretch to
sup filtered light.
Butterflyfish and Tang
intermingle amid coral polyps,
that are plentiful appetizers
for this party.
As sponges get their rays,
a seahorse uncoils and jettisons itself
just overhead of a yawning mussel.
I giggle to myself as an angelfish kisses
my goggles and swim beneath the belly of turtle;
awed at the Crayola chroma essence
that delights my spirit.
