Under The Sea

Under the sea, the dolphins play
They swim and frolic throughout the day.
Under the sea a predator waits
He catches a fish but it escapes.
Under the sea, is a reef so bright
Made up of all the colours you can think of, that’s right.
Under the sea, starfish lie
While all the crabs scuttle sideways by.
Under the sea, the mermaids have homes
And all their children make little sand domes.
Under the sea, is a magical place
You should come and visit, but leave no trace!
