🐠 Part 1: Read the Poem

Under the Sea

Down beneath the rolling waves,
Where the water's deep and blue,
Live the creatures of the sea,
In a world that's strange and new.

Colourful fish swim all around,
Coral gardens bright and tall,
Seahorses dance in ocean currents,
While dolphins leap and call.

Jellyfish float like see-through clouds,
Starfish rest on sandy floors,
In this underwater kingdom,
There's always something to explore.
