The Ocean

I swam
In the ocean
I put my legs
In motion

I was adrift
For days
Being prepared
Really pays

Suddenly, I saw
A great white shark
The sky was
Getting dark

Dolphins swam
In a circle around me
Thus ensuring
My safety

Finally, the shark
Swam away
Out of gratitude
I did pray

Two sea otters
Kept me company
They were playful
And very happy

I was picked up
By a large boat
It was getting
Difficult to float
