A huge humpback whale
Trapped by a certain kind of fishing net
She could have died almost certainly
More struggle less strength
Life in her beautiful big eyes fading
A stranger in a boat
Was diving not far away
Perceived her iminent plight
Not able to breathe properly
Very quickly four compassionate strangers
Saw the offending nets
Cut them all
Able to free her not an easy job
A huge mammal tons of size and weight
She did not struggle
Her mournful cries touched their hearts
They did not stop till
Until every bit of the net was destroyed
Feeling life back in her
She swam around them gently
Nudging each one saying thank you
Story made me want to cry
How many more whales must die?
