 Sea Creatures Come along, come with me, Take a dive in the deep blue sea. Put on your gear, let's explore All the way to the ocean floor! See that snail wrapped in curls? Look! An oyster wearing pearls! Watch the octopus oh so dark, But don't you dare to pet the shark! Dive on down, seaward bound, Motion in the ocean is all around! Dive on down, seaward bound, Motion in the ocean is all around! Now we're very far below, The lantern fish are all aglow. Is that a tiny shock you feel? You just met an electric eel! Giant blue whales start to stir, Bigger than dinosaurs ever were! Wave good-bye to the squid and sponge, This is the end of our deep-sea plunge! Dive on down, seaward bound, Motion in the ocean is all around! Dive on down, seaward bound, Motion in the ocean is all around! by Meish Goldish |

How I wish I were a fish! My day would begin Flapping my fins. I'd make a commotion Out in the ocean. It would be cool To swim in a school. In the sea, I'd move so free, With just one thought: Don't get caught! by Meish Goldish |
What do you see in the sea? Animals moving free! Snails and whales Using their tails. Seals and eels Searching for meals. Catfish, flatfish Chasing fat fish. Bass and wrasse Swimming in mass. Hagfish, hogfish Trailing dogfish. What do you see in the sea? Animals moving free! by Meish Goldish |
The little fish are silent As they swim round and round. Their mouths are ever talking A speech without a sound. Now aren't the fishes funny To swim in water clear And talk with words so silent That nobody can hear? Arthur S. Bourinot |
Look at them flit Lickety-split Wiggling Swiggling Swerving Curving Hurrying Scurrying Chasing Racing Whizzing Whisking Flying Frisking Tearing around With a leap and a bound But none of them making the tiniest tiniest tiniest tiniest sound. Mary Ann Hoberman |
