Deep in the water, where nobody dares go,
Live certain creatures which never seem to show,
They stick to the shadows to keep out of sight,
Searching for their meals, day and night.
There are many different colours, shades of blue and green,
This endless abyss is a whole world unseen,
Who knows what lurks in those endangered reefs,
Not above the surface, but far underneath.
All these things yearn for there is their next meal,
Some eat plants, but most must kill,
Just the swish of a tail and a drop of blood,
Alerts other species and in the predators flood.
The carnivore gives chase to catch its prey,
Bearing its splinter-like teeth in that threatening way,
Soon it takes hold, devours both flesh and bone,
Before swiftly returning to skulk down in the unknown.
