What would I be like If I were a manatee?

Copyright 2021 by Kenneth Van Camp, all rights reserved.


Would I be shy?

Only surface on the sly?

And keep myself hidden from all humanity?


Would I play games with the boats?

Play hide and seek under floats?

Make everyone wonder, what can-it-be?


Would I bob and sup?

Curl my tail and bulk myself up?

What's that you say... vanity?


But mostly if I were a manatee,

I'd turn my face for you to see,

And then I'd laugh at how you look at me.


Oh, if only I were a manatee!
