Andrew Wong

Shark

A silent enemy hiding in the deep blue waters of the ocean

Large and harmless to the eye,

Just waiting to devour prey like an insatiable hunter.

 

With lightening speed,

The shark is upon its prey

Sharp teeth ripping the trapped enemy to pieces.

Relishing its bloody victory,

It again vanishes,

Into the ocean's bottomless depths.
