You may have a favorite dawn songbird
sing by your window to entertain you,
yet only whales and humans have music.

Whales have been trying to communicate
with sapiens unsuccessfully
for at least two hundred years or longer.
Whales possess much larger brains than humans,
but they are confined to deep ocean waters,
while we can roam over both land and sea.
*
Indigenous whales would want a treaty
which would be ecologically sound,
preserving the variety of life
that lives and breathes in the world-wide ocean….
