Manta Magic – A Poem by Micheline Jenner

Manta Magic

A splash from afar
Soon we’ll see what you are…

Brydes whales feeding
At the surface leading

Surging side-ways
Near oceanic manta rays

Pink krill leaping
Ocean mantas seeking

Tropical ocean treats
At the line where water and air meets!

White bellies upward
Krill jumping skyward

Barrell-rolling fun
Within setting sun

Graceful flight
Wing-tips in sight

Underwater dance
Weaves magical trance

(Written by Micheline Jenner)
