It was getting dark everywhere, and the night was getting deep. The small fish in the ocean, all asleep. Little Sea Ghost Bodie was in bed, too. But it was strange today that as soon as he closed his eyes he opened them again. Later, he simply got up and floated out of the pirate ship: "I am not sleepy today, because I am not tired of playing! Simply I go out to play again, so tired play to sleep!" Oh, strange night in the ocean! The long seaweed danced neatly with the current; High reef, like a majestic sea guard; And strangest of all, the ocean is filled with colorful bubbles, big and small. Some of the bubbles were swaying gently in the water, while others were shaking all the time! "What are they? Curiously, Bodie swam close to a yellow bubble that shook as if someone were fighting inside. "Who is so naughty? I'll go in and see!" Splash! Bodie's gone into the yellow bubble. A squid swam quickly past Bodie, then a big shark. The big shark was chasing the little squid. The little squid dodged cleverly... Oh, no, the shark is coming. He opens his big mouth and he's going to bite the baby squid! Just then, the little squid puffed out its mouth and sprayed ink at the big shark. Oh, how sad the shark was. He writhed in pain in the ink, crying out, "Oh, oh! I'm going to die!" They cried, "Pounce!" The yellow bubble burst, and the shark and the baby squid were gone! "Why, where have they gone? Bodie looked around. See, a big shark is not far from the bottom of the sea, rolling, humming: "I die! I'm going to die!" After rolling around for a while, the shark opened his eyes and mumbled, "Damn, I had a bad dream!" "Wow, this is so funny, I just walked into a shark's dream!" Bodie looked excitedly at the bubbles around him. "These bubbles, they're all fish dreams! How amazing!" This is so much fun! It was great fun for Potty to go in and out of the big, small, colorful dream bubbles, looking at this dream and that dream. Then, behind a clump of coral, he spotted a small, silvery, shining bubble. "Whose dream is this? Why is it still shining?" Potty swam carefully close to the silver dream and slipped quietly inside. -- Oh, the blue sea, the blue sky! The sky is shining with countless beautiful little stars. Suddenly, the sea beat, a small red starfish jumped out of the sea, with a shiny tail, flew into the sky. The little starfish flew higher and higher, and finally became a little star, hanging high in the sky! "Wow, it must be a little starfish's dream! What a beautiful dream!" Potty stood there, looking up at the sky until, with a crash, the silver bubble burst and the stars disappeared. Potty came to himself. 'I'll hurry home and go to bed too! I want to have that beautiful dream! I want to dream of the stars, and I want to dream of flying under them!" Bodie swam quickly toward the pirate ship. "Well, I want to dream that I will take all the fish in the ocean, flying in the sky, and frighten my friends on the land!" "Bodie thought and chuckled.
