Here's what my entry might look like:
RUNAWAY RHYMES 2: SEAHORSE
This poem was written when I was about 10.
Rocking along to the melody of the tide,
Full of courage and no need to hide
Swimming, belonging at the bottom of the sea
Without a care in the world and free.
The male carries the imminent brood
Leaving the female agile to find food.
Allowing the other beasts of the ocean
To gaze upon mystic beauty in motion.
It would ideal to be in the water all day
To swim to my hearts content and play.
So I wish I was a seahorse.
A female one, of course.
Good luck and I look forward to enjoying the talents of the Steem poets.
