I glide within the ocean
Flying with two wings
A unique fish
You’ll also wish
To avoid my tail that stings!

My body’s wide and flat
I hide under the sand
Above me I’m quite hard to see
And that’s just what I planned!

But when I swim
I mostly skim
The ground of the seafloor
Tiny shrimp and shellfish
Are the snacks that I look for!

Striking, grand, unusual,
My way’s a graceful sway
Just a look
And you’ll be hooked
By the beautiful stingray!
