Underwater Circus

The underwater chatter,
Was impossible to hear.
The transparent blue matter,
Darting fish here and there.
Wriggling sea snakes look for lunch,
Dancing dolphins made a circus for me.
The corals bobbed to the beat of the waves,
Hermit crabs disrupted the sand with glee.
All the fun was about to end,
In the murky deep someone awaits.
The fish are about to surrender,
Where the shark and the fish start their debate.
With the salty taste still in my mouth,
Wrapping myself in a clean dry cloth.
My next destination is heading down south,
Where I’ll meet my next under water circus.
