A dolphin lost his
wife,
The love of his life,
In Dingle Bay.
He chose to stay.
Fungie was his name,
His play brought fame,
But he felt all alone,
With his sweetheart
flown.
Until, something black,
Crashed into his back,
So fast and blurred.
A bird,
My word!
That liked to dive,
To feel alive.
Far below,
Fungie said hello!
To Corm, the sea crow.
They got to know,
Each other,
As sister and brother,
Had all sorts of fun,
Ask anyone!
The lighthouse keeper
spied,
Fungie give Corm a
ride,
And toss him many
meals,
Of fish and slippery
eels.
In return, Corm ate a
parasite,
Saving Fungie's sight.
When cold winds blew,
Their friendship grew,
This unlikely pair,
With time to share.
