Knot Mine - Part15 ' The Opera Sharks

Samuel barked the orders at hand,
"Look all around the ship! There's more water than sand!
Karen yelped at this deep sea frightening thought,
And Jack hated the idea of being water caught,
But silence was golden as the ships came to a halt,
All soaked in water and their mouths filled with salt,
A voice emerged from the eerie depths,
The voice is was singing each tone filled with wealth,
A troop of sharks did appear and sing their hearts to the sky,
"Today my dear travellers¦you're all going to die!
The leader of the sharks had a suit on with tie,
Karen thought their friendship could be bought with a lie,
"What fantastic singing voices you have.
"Flattery, flattery simply isn't your style!
The lead shark announced,
"Your lies it see seems send me into denial.
"Denial of what you seek? Karen sang,
"You dare sing back right at us in that very twang??!?!
"What's wrong with my singing voice I must dear ask?
"My girl you need lessons or put your head in a flask!
And with that the lead shark ordered the others to bite,
The ship fell to pieces and the sailor frogs began to fight,
But oars made of wool will not do much to a shark,
Why yes everybody¦their bites like their bark!
One by one the frog sailors fell,
In pain and horror they sang with the shells,
But Karen and Jack waded through the surface wool,
This was suddenly yanked across but a rather large pull,
Samuel the saviour had found simple dry land,
And was dragging them both in the wool net onto sweet dry, dry land,
"Samuel we thank you so very greatly!
Said Karen so sweetly,
"Yes I am thankful also. Said Jack drying himself,
The lead shark screamed from the water,
"It is worth land and wealth?!?!?!
