READ UNDERSTAND AND ANSWER

Hearing by David Bouchard


As you walk along the ocean

And peer out toward the water

And you see a log that’s floating—

Look again, it might be me.

Come right down into the harbour,

But be quick, I must keep moving

. I am one the orca’s hunting,

And he frequently swims here.

Like the orca, I send signals,

Only mine sound much like clicking.

They bounce back with a clear message:

“Is it time to flee or eat?”

It would serve me if you showed Them

How I dive into the ocean.

How the channels to my ears fill

And then serve me like a drum

That amplifies the slightest sound—

That’s how I hear in water.

There’s more that makes me special.

I can hear on land as well.

They have surely heard me talking

With my friends out on their shores. l

Come and look across your harbor.

I’m here peeking. Can you see me? Please be quick. I must keep moving.

Now you see me, now you don’t.
