Jellyfish Toss

Please, oh please
catch it (and not wear it)
So were the thoughts
rushing through my mind as I played
jellyfish toss
with the circle
of newfound friends,
at the edge of the sea.
Dripping goo and
stinging cells, who
knew the risks;
but we were definitely
careful, oh so careful.
Toss it gently.
