Debbie the Starfish

Beneath the waves so deep and wide,
Where ocean currents dance and glide,
Lived Debbie, bright with golden hue,
A starfish proud, a heart so true.

She spread her arms, five strong and free,
A silent queen beneath the sea.
With every tide, she'd swirl and sway,
Greeting friends along the bay.

The clownfish cheered, the turtles spun,
The dolphins leaped beneath the sun.
Debbie shone in reefs so bright,
A guiding star in ocean light.

But one day, storms began to rise,
Dark clouds loomed in angry skies.
The waves grew fierce, the waters tossed,
And Debbie feared that all was lost.

Yet even when the currents roared,
She held on tight, her heart restored.
For though the sea may twist and turn,
A steadfast soul will stand and learn.

So now she tells the fish so small,
That even when the tempests call,
To trust the tides, be brave, stand tall—
For strength can shine in creatures small.
