THE OCTOPUS

A cephalopod---

The writhing octopus---

Is utterly odd

And truly marvelous.

It will give you a

Friendly wink

Then squirt you with its

Murky ink.

Its jumbo peeper is pretty piercing

Whenever

It opens

To look at all of the other ocean

Denizens.

Its favorite meal the

Crab

Is something it will promptly

Grab.

A Cephalopod---

The writhing octopus---

Is utterly odd

And truly marvelous.
