The prophet from Joppa set sail.
Soon his ship was caught in a gale,
Though it seems rather odd
A “submarine” got the Lord’s nod.
Jonah was “picked up” by a whale. (Jon 1)

Jonah did not drown,
‘Cause he was found,
By a finely-timed, finny “friend.”
He swallowed him down,
But in three days found
He couldn’t keep him in.
A prophet “gone bad”
Even makes a whale sad.

He did not let the Lord prevail,
Instead he paid fare to sail.
Old salts tried to row,
But finally did throw
The prophet, to stop the wild gale. Jon 1.15
