"Emmett Was An Octopus (But Not The Only Octopus)"
Acrylics on Playing Card-Sized Wood
Emmett was an octopus,
a shy octo was he.
He grinned and frowned
and swam upside down
but didn't want anyone to see.
--------------------
Meet Bennett The Octopus,
such a bright green is he
that everyone who meets him
assumes he's filled with jealousy
But Bennett is not envious at all
thought most octopi are very big
and he is still quite small.
----------------------
Pauley was an octopus,
as proud as can be --
of his unique skin tone,
purple was he.
That's not red
and not the same as blue
it's a secondary color,
a mixture of the two!
