Humble Sea Urchin
Saturday, December 29th, 2007
Egg fertilized
Two, four to 64
(Two to the sixth power)
Cell to larvae in hours
Hedgehog creature
Of the ocean floor
Many a tube feet
No legs or hands, it seems
Feeding on algae
Preyed on by cousin starfish
Eaten by crabs, wolf eels
Snails and sea otters
Your roes, a must have
A delicacy in sushi-land
No eyes to shed tears
Just spines that leave a mark
