Beatrice's First Poem

Beatrice wrote her first poem today, for a contest at school.

Grunions

Grunions are shiny, scaly blue fish
That sometimes go up on the beach,
Wanting to stay out of seals' reach.
They also like to lay eggs on the wet sand.
When they are done, they'll return to their ocean land!

 

The accompanying picture shows that if there were no grunion, there would also be no seals, sharks, or larger fish (ie., the food chain).
