Out of the dreamy ocean blue
A penguin glides into my view
With simple grace and body sleek
Wave-surfing every trough and peak
I long to know her secret ways
I watch her as she dives and plays
I see her battling stormy seas
And basking in the summer breeze
The day she lands upon my shore
She seems more lovely than before
With sparking eyes that glint of fun
She glistens in the winter sun
Her beauty takes my breath away
I only hope that she can stay
So much to share, to give and take
I'm dreaming that I'll never wake
