Something pinched the pincher off,

maybe another sea creature did it just to show off.

Somewhere there is a one-pincher-armed-crab crawling sideways or swimming in circles missing his other pincher.

If I could sew it back on,

then I surely would,

instead, I’ll hold it in my hand.

Shallow, clear water smiles at me,

I smile back and feel so glad.

I wish you had been there too to experience all the warm fun and sun!
