Manny McMansworth

Manny McMansworth is an undercover manatee,

With a cape and a briefcase.

Traveling through the sea,

With the cutest little face.

Hiding behind sharks,

Staying away from "Fishy Jail."

Protecting dolpins in the ocean,

His job, he must not fail!

Keeping crime out of the sea,

Is the number 1 job, of this manatee!

With a badge on his chest,

That he wears with pride.

Protecting all,

Under the tide.

    I'm glad you had fun with it. I know I certainly enjoyed it. I write this sort of thing myself sometimes and it always makes me feel good.

    Very upbeat.
