She plunged
Feet first
In shallow waters
Found the current
Light and swift
She laughed
Delightedly
As she frolicked
In its clear
Silvery haze
Humming
A merry tune
And skipping
Haphazardly
Toes digging
In golden
Fine sand
Aimlessly
Navigating
Its brightly
Shaded maze
On she romped
Boisterously
Blind to the
Murky waters ahead
When a sudden
Pain grabbed her
Legs screaming
In sad regret
She collapsed
Not far from
The tombolo
Her arms held out
In belief
A final
Stinging spasm
To remind her
The lesson
Lest she forget
To keep
Her eyes open
For not only
In these waters
Are sharks King
Many others too,
Though common
And quotidian,
Have a sharp sting
