The Snoring Starfish

Underneath a sandy beach, where coral castles gleam, Lived a Starfish, quite rotund, lost in a sleepy dream. He snored so very loudly, a bubbly, briny sound, That shook the seabed gently, for miles and miles around!

The Sand, he grumbled softly, "Oh, Starfish, please be still! Your snorts are quite disruptive, they give me such a chill!" The Waves, they crashed and chuckled, "He's louder than the tide! He's waking up the seahorses, who try so hard to hide!"

The little fish, they fluttered, with wide and worried eyes, "That snoring starfish! Oh dear me! He's filling us with sighs!" They tried to gently nudge him, with fins and tiny tails, But Starfish only snored again, with louder, windy wails!

Then clever Sand had an idea, he whispered to a crab, "Let's tickle Starfish's tummy, just give him a gentle jab!" The crab crept near, so quietly, and tickled with his claw, The Starfish giggled, woke up, and didn't snore at all!

He smiled, stretched out his five arms, and yawned a sleepy sigh, "Oh my, was I disturbing you? I do apologise!" He snuggled in the softest sand, and closed his eyes so tight, And drifted off to silent sleep, all through the starry night.
