In the deep blue sea, where fish sing and seaweed sways, a green octopus named Haiku lived among the coral reefs. He loved to write poems.
Haiku had eight arms. And with each, he'd ink a word, crafting poems that shimmered like the sunlit sea.
One sunny day near the surf, Haiku met an odd fish. It was Sam, the sunfish, who said, 'Teach me to write!'
Haiku and Sam sat on the sandbank, while waves hummed a tune. Together, they wrote about waves and foam.
To celebrate, they danced in a whirl of bubbles. Haiku's arms twirled, conducting the ocean's symphony.
As they danced, Haiku recited his favorite haiku: 'Dancing green arms sway, Hidden in a sea of blue, Octopus dreams big.'
Sam loved the haiku so much, he wanted to dance too. So, he twirled his fins and followed Haiku's flow.
Fish from all around gathered to watch their display, amazed at how well a sunfish could dance!
Together, they twirled until the stars twinkled above. Then they rested on the seabed, surrounded by applause.
Haiku whispered, 'Friends who dance and write together, share a bond that lasts forever.' Sam nodded happily.
From then on, Haiku and Sam wrote many poems. Each one told a story of the sea and their friendship.
One special night, a boat of people heard their splash. They listened in wonder as the sea echoed their poems.
