Dare-Devils Of The Sea

The Acrobatic ‘Man-Bird-Fish! ' Man flies in air wingless, ‘bird-like’! Man swims in water like a fish; Man acrobatics monkey-like; Man does most things as per his wish! Man dives from cliffs and rocks so high, And floats a moment just swan-like, Taking risks, unafraid to die, Plunging head-down, into the sea! Cliff-diving is a thrilling sport, Courageous and perilous; The daring ones make it their forte; Now swimming pools look courteous! In three seconds, they touch the sea; The entry-splash looking, so neat A spectacle, incredibly. Nick Fluge dived down sixty-five feet! You’ve got to train for days, weeks, years, With risks disastrous, if you miss; Tho’ Scuba’ equipment and gears Protect some persons, from death’s kiss! Copyright by Dr John Celes 1-9-2008
