The Drifting

2022, Senior, Poetry & Spoken Word

I’ve got a tale
that’ll waggle your tails
It’s called sailing on the ice blocks
And watching the whales

The yacht made of ice
Breaking off the shelf
Has become in a dinghy
Enough room for an elf

The ocean waves crash
As we ride on a surfboard
And land on a beach
Not yet explored

I really love sun tanning
Swimming in the tropical lagoons
It really gives me a great new colour
To hang out with these buffoons

Most of the days we sunbathe
And lay on the sand
The sun glaring down on us
As we stroll hand in hand

Gone are the days
Of feeding on krill
We now enjoy clownfish
To keep our fill

But the best of all of this
Is the time we share
It’s just the three of us:
The penguin, the narwhal, and the polar bear.
