The Little Fish ~~ a Flash poem (meaning 'short')

(The Little Fish) 
 

I am the

Little Fish

Swimming in my pond 
 

Swimming is my delight

Exploring my pond 
 

Seems there is always new

Sights daily to see 

I am the

Little Fish

Swimming in my pond 

I swim from morn to night

No bell on my tail 
 

People come, watch me swim 

Wink and wave for them
