Aquariums built for a reason
Besides the tourists downtown
Considered the summer season
Divided by truth yet to be found
Ethan loved popular exhibits
Family outings took him there
Gathered what sea life prohibits
Honored ocean life everywhere
Included with the expo teachers
Jesters’ stories on how to save
“Kindred spirits in sea creatures
Lo and behold let them be brave”
Marine biologists had to tell
Negligence resided in the water
Ozone layer above cast a spell
Pollution made survival harder
Quarantines were the only way
Rescued fish from ocean deep
Steadied the saved up from the bay
Tenderly so the fish wouldn’t leap
Usual oceanography was a study
Volunteers grew to be outstanding
Warned from Ethan’s robot buddy
“Xerophilous was a curse demanding”
Yaw rocked a fated ship’s direction
Zap, sparked a sea life’s call for protection
