Bubbly body
Massive flesh
Unshaped physique
More like a whale
But not so like that
Lazy in movement
Slow and steady
Very small fins
More like a fish
But not so like that
Looks so
Like a dangerous monster
But never like that
Dwelling in
Tropical coast waters
Of Western Africa
Peace personified
Totally harmless
Such a massive mass
So surprising
So innocent
Neither teasing
Nor threatening
Never tormenting
Just so friendly
Seems so affectionate
Marvellous creatures
Moving Manatees
Sirenian mammal
So called sea cows
Worth a watch
What they do
Seemingly slow motion
Calm and cool
Happy and contended!
Here is a request. It would be nice if a picture of this amazing creature is also given under the poem.
You have essayed this wonderful creature rather lovingly. We would like to caress this gentle aquatic cow. Thanks.

Lovely description, and made me wonder what the sea cow looks like. Indeed, you are right and made me smiling of the manatee/sea cow!
