Best Shark Poems

There's a shark lurking in the soup they say
With sharp teeth ready to strike any day
Our pens remain our best weapons
No matter what the shark threatens
We will just write more to send him away

I once was here, then in the blue ocean,
I once was dry, then thrown into commotion. 
I had no clue, for I was in the complete dark,
but I was becoming a GREAT WHITE SHARK!

Just a wee baby was I at five feet in length,
I have...

Animal rights groups are in an uproar
They don’t want to hear of it anymore

While swimming, a shark came around
Into its fin, his teeth he viciously ground

He said shark fin soup was his best treat
One that he took every occasion to eat

They said the...

There’s a shark in my soup

Sat down at the bowl
just about to begin
When what did I see
but a little gray fin
Swimming around
and making a loop
A strange sight to see
down there in my soup
I reached for the can
just couldn’t resist
I needed to check 
the ingredient list
Noodles...

In my soup I could have sworn I saw a shark.
Swimming in roux that was rather dark.
But to my relief,
the fin a bay leaf.
Now I wear glasses before each meal I start.

My Pet Shark


I took my pet shark to the swimming pool

To help him learn to swim.

Now my swimming instructor’s missing,

No one has heard from him.

I am a foodie, I must confess, I swim a few laps for exercise
Along come the Mollusk, and to my pleasant surprise
I have no restraint and they look so yummy
I just open my jaws wide, and fill up my tummy

Holy Mackerel, they make quite the...

Shark, the cat, is sitting catty-wampus today.  He is a contortionist. His head is to the north,
His tail to the west, paws to the east, crossed in a southwesterly way, except for one which is
Somehow sticking up in the air like a lone feather....

Tim had all the necessary ingredients right next to his ancient burner


Shark teeth dangling from a sunken necklace at the cutting edge but

The amulet had turned into chains and shackles grinding the chef’s mind

A lost recipe for happiness but and he had no appetite for...

When I ordered fish soup I hadn't a clue
 That a predator lurked within the brew
 I was ready to taste it so I dipped my spoon in
 But rising from the bowl was a dorsal fin!

 I took up a fork to spear this...

Shark, the contortionist cat, is sitting catty-wampus today.
His head is north, paws west, crossed in a weird southwestern way.
Wearing his glitzy tiara and a feathered boa of blue.
He will not take direction, and has a secret kill room, maybe two

He drags these little bitty animals...

I am floating lazily in the ocean, enjoying myself when I suddenly realize…
I am wearing a Band-Aid,
A Band-Aid over a small cut.
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
 
I suddenly remember that a great white shark can smell a drop of blood
More than a mile...

This is a TIGER...
SHARK of a different color.
The bite still deadly!...

I was swimming in the ocean enjoying it so much
I back floated and relaxed with my cousins Mat and Hutch
All of a sudden Mat broke my dreamy thoughts with a scream
The water choppy, he was carried swiftly up stream

Two great whites were fighting over which...

Freezing water.
Many hours.
Prayer, hymns, and laughter.
Gray fins begin circling our group.

Day Three There are thirteen of us now.
Twenty-six numb legs stop moving.
Hymn singing stops.
Who will be next? I hold my breath.

Goliath is taken.
Pulled away from the circle.
His girlfriend screams. 
Goliath makes no sound. Gives me...
