Silky Shark

In the depths of the ocean, a story unfolds

Of a silky shark, resilient and bold

In Jupiter, Florida, it swam with grace

Until a satellite tag left a large, gaping space

 

The dorsal fin, wounded and torn

But the shark didn\'t falter, didn\'t mourn

It continued to swim, to live, to thrive

And in a year\'s time, it began to revive

 

Researchers were amazed, as they watched in awe

As the injured fin grew, without a single flaw

Regenerating tissue, a miraculous sight

A testament to nature\'s incredible might

 

For the first time documented, in history\'s span

A silky shark showed that it can

Heal and regenerate, against all odds

A symbol of resilience, of the power of gods

 

Like a phoenix rising from the sea

The silky shark\'s tale is a sight to see

It teaches us that in the face of despair

There\'s always hope, there\'s always repair

 

So let us marvel at this wondrous feat

And celebrate the beauty of nature\'s treat

For the silky shark\'s story will forever shine

A reminder that even in darkness, there\'s a star to align. (\"Silky Shark\") by Courtney Weaver Jr.
