The Starfish
When I see a starfish
Upon the shining sand,
I ask him how he liked the sea
And if he likes the land.
“Would you rather be a starfish
or an out-beyond-the bar fish?”
He never says directly,
But I fancy all the same
That he knows the answer quite as well
As if it were his name:
“An out-beyond-the-bar fish Is much happier than a starfish”;
And when I look for him again
He’s gone the way he came.
-David McCord
Seahorse
O under the ocean waves
I gallop the seaweed lanes,
I jump the coral reef,
And all with no saddle or reins.
I haven’t a flowing mane,
I’ve only this horsey face,
But under the ocean waves
I’m king of the steeplechase.
-Blake Morrison
