Sense Sonnet - Acher

A Diver out of Water

I was fighting a forest fire,
And came across a body - dead.
The strange thing was the corpse attire -
Diving outfit from feet to head.
The ocean was 2 miles away.
How had the diver gotten here,
In a forest fire? There was dismay.
Later, the answer became clear.
Coptors with huge buckets tied in,
Brought ocean water to dump on
The fire. The diver must have been
Scooped to the fire and dropped upon.

That's how a diver came to be
In a fire instead of the sea.
