This reminds me of these human maniquin mimes...
...my folks and I happened across one summer when down in New Orleans!
Kudos!

Legend
has it
that,
one day, 
a
young man
was
walking along the beach
when
he came across
an
old man
picking up starfish
that
had
washed ashore and
tossing them
back into the ocean.
He informed the old man
that there were
thousands of starfish
along
countless miles of beach...
"Do you really
believe that
you can
save them all?" he asked.
The old man,
without a word,
bent over 
and picked up
another starfish,
tossed it
out into the ocean,
and, then, responded:
"I saved this one!"
Keeping that in mind, please read this!

WOW!
That was very interesting, a very different poem indeed. It had romance and humor, two things not often written about together in a poem. I very much enjoyed reading it.
