A Fishy Tale

By Buzby

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Little goldfish spend their lives Just swimming round and round They never stop to say hello They never make a sound With their golden heads and tails And their swishy golden fins All that goldfish seem to do Is swim and swim and swim I wonder if a goldfish had a tank Not round but square Then instead of swimming round and round He’d swim from here to there!Just a little light one to counter all the dark stuff!!
