Ace of Oceans
Mythological caretakers of the water

Night has fallen, so I am awake
My dark body glides through quiet waters
My neck and tail slither like a snake through the blue-green depths, propelled by the four flippers off my port body
The tendrils from my head and the ridge of my back sense the vibrations in the water
I keep to myself and to the darkness, like the ones before me
Always only one
And I am new
To humans we are myths
So rarely seen by their eyes
“Champ”, “Loch Ness” have been our names, and many others before
I am but small, but I will grow mighty
Caring for the waters and its creatures
Enchanting humanity with my song
Always alone and never alone
Surrendered to the will of the water
