A Poem by Thayne Whipple

Whale

Jan 13, 2016
Largest living mammal, you,
Kind and gentle giant too.
Singing whale songs to all,
I have heard your stately call.
You are gorgeous when you leap
From the ocean dark and deep.
Splashing tail, you say hi,
I with waving arm reply.
Then you dive and swim below.
Where you go, I'll never know.
But I'll watch the sea about,
And again I'll see your spout.
