Having A Whale Of A Time!

'Gangway! Gangway! I'm coming through! ' The massive whale declared! 'Yes, move aside, I'm wide, it's true! If quick, you won't get scared! I'll wave goodbye as I swim past! Then I'll bid you farewell... My, my, I'm really going fast! As if you couldn't tell...' 'The new kid on the block, that's me! I've not been here before! I've put on weight, that's plain to see... I'm bound to eat much more! One day, I might be twice the size! If that were possible! I'll exercise, don't worry, guys! I'll still look wonderful! ' 'It's warm today, I'm feeling spry... Quite frisky, don't you know? And when I feel I'm on a high, There's no point going slow... I'm on my way to who knows where... That could be miles, OK? Yes, move aside, don't stop and stare! Gangway! Gangway! Gangway! ' Denis Martindale, copyright, October 2011.
