Thank you, Selma. I really enjoyed my read of your poem. They certainly are lovely animals.

You might find this interesting. When I was a young child I fell off a pier and almost drowned. The only part of that I remember is seeing a seahorse in the water as I was on my way to the bottom. I was so young that I remember nothing else. Obviously and luckily I was rescued very quickly. To this day the seahorse is a good luck symbol as far as I’m concerned.

The fact that they risk extinction is horrible.
