For those who may not be aware
Today is part of something rare
Rejoice if you’re a fellow geek
Yes, it’s cephalopod week
Those creatures living off our shores
With tentacles and leucophores
Their brains are largely in their feet
And all of them are really neat
An octopus or cuttlefish
Is strange as you could ever wish
A genius on the ocean floor
With arms that number eight or more
Their skin is like one large display
That changes many times a day
And best of all, oh let’s give praise,
The celebration lasts eight days!
