The Abalone
By Leonard K. Eaton
The
Abalone is a gastropod
And gastropods are very odd
They travel on one foot alone
And slowly move from stone to stone
The sea otter find them succulent
And eats them to his heart's content
He breaks the shells like cracker boxes
For tools he uses handy rockses
The fishermen don't like this notion
But otters tell me it is their ocean.
