The Island
by Margarita Mondrus Engle
What if you were sitting still,
At the coast of the great blue sea,
Your toes dancing in the sand,
No place you had to be
And then you saw an island,
Above the waves of the blue.
The island had tall mountains,
And a high castle (城堡), too.
So you built yourself a raft (木筏),
And bravely rowed the oars (桨).
Sailing in the great blue sea,
You finally reached the island’s coast.
But when you stepped onto the island,
It started to move away.
You said, “Hey, wait a minute!”
It answered, “What did you say ”
Then you discovered that the mountains,
Were really a great big tail.
And the castle was a tower of spray (水花)
The island was a WHALE!
Then the whale said, “Hold your breath.”
And went to the ocean floor.
He introduced you to his friends,
And knocked on a mermaid’s door.
Then you danced with a dolphin,
And a seahorse gave you a ride.
A hammerhead shark tipped his hat,
And an eel showed you where to hide.
Then the whale said, “Wasn’t that great ”
And you said, “It sure was fun!”

And you dried off in the sun.
As you rowed back to the seashore,
You waved to your friend-the whale.
And he sent up a castle of spray,
And waved back with his mountain tail.
