Chance Encounter Poem by Ima Ryma

A shark while swimming noticed that
A human was swimming nearby,
Fair game in the shark's habitat,
Menu item to qualify.
And so the shark directed fin
And headed for the human meal.
Attack strategy did begin.
For the shark it was no big deal.
But suddenly the shark was struck
Senseless by a gigantic tail.
The shark had encountered bad luck.
The human was saved by a whale.

The shark chose to swim on its way,
Gave up on this catch of the day.
