Sturgeon Valentine
Sweet swimming Valentine be mine
silent, your light becomes my vision
your cause becomes entwined in mine.
Odd Valentine we share together
a proud yet determined journey,
a valiant course risking all forever.
Flying high on the waves
salient Sturgeon Valentine,
Forever strive together through time…
The painting is of an Atlantic Sturgeon which is considered a “species of concern.” The short nose sturgeon also of the Atlantic is endangered. Read more about these great fish at: http://www.fws.gov/warmsprings/bearsbluff/species/sturgeons.html
