Far below the ocean waves, a gnarble lay in bed,All night long his gnarble dreams kept swimming
in his head.
3
He dreamt a dream of swimming up to see the sky
bove. Lit up by the sun in
color. He just knew he'd love.
4
But gnarbles never swamthat high, their fins were
much too small,Their tails
were thin and floppy,
which didn't help at all.
This gnarble liked his
fins and had no problem
with his tail, So when he
woke he knew that he
just couldn't, wouldn't fail.
5
"I'm swimming up above the waves to see the sky of blue;I've never seen it even once,
and now it's time I do."
6
But the other gnarbles warned him that he shouldn't swim so high,As did the blyfish family that always swam close by.
"No gnarble's ever swam that high, it simply isn't done,
A blyfish might just make the trip, but we know you're not one."
e
7
"Gnarbles don't have flappers like all us blyfish do,You don't even have
koggers like the swimming gungaloo."e
8
But the gnarble didn't listen and he left his friends behind.No silly blyfish
family could ever change his mind.
9
He swam up past the boulders made of spongy gishy-gosh
10
And flew right by the herd of floating feeding fipple-fosh.His fins were getting
tired but he knew he couldn't stop,
So he kept swimming faster, trying
hard to reach the top.
11
Just then a hungry warckel blocked the gnarble with his fin.He grabbed him by his tail
and brought him right up to his chin.
12
"I've never had a gnarble, this would be a tasty treat,But you're much too thin and tiny for big old me to eat."
13
So the gnarble just kept swimming, and didn't dare to stop,Until he heard
the sound of a great big bubble POP!
14
He turned around to see that he was in
a bit of trouble.The
sound he heard was
that of a silver
subbalubble.
The gnarble tried to hide somewhere that he could safely stay.
But the subbalubble saw
him and was headed right his way.
15
"Oh Mister Subbalubble, please don't eat me
up for lunch,
I'll bring a yummy
plant instead, for you
to sit and munch."
16
The gnarble cowered back in fear and shook from fin to fin,But then he saw a school of fish called shiny glimmy glin.
17
The glimmy glin swam right pastthe subbalubble's face,
And the gnarble grabbed a
glimmy fin and quickly left that place.
18
The gnarble swam up higher still,until he
saw some light.
He knew it had to be the sun
and, oh was it a sight!
19
Closely by a plink was sleeping, lying on his back.He rubbed his giant belly as he dreamed about a snack.
20
The gnarble smiled happilyand set his fins a swimming
But he didn't see the plink wake
up, for he was busy grinning.
