Look at these creatures from deep in the sea
with tentacles, scales and slippery skin.

Are they staring at me?

Observing our species, our children are mesmerised
as they swim and glide through a salt-water tide.

Do they want to eat me?

They’ve put on a show, so they like what we do
creating this space of connection.

It looks like they love to be watched!
