By the River Bank

By the river bank there dwells a King In quiet repose, despite his bling Resplendence though is his forte, Ever donned in fine display. Was e'er a bird as suave as he Dressed in shimmering livery, On his mind a little fish A tasty morsel, oft his wish. Then with a splash, in he goes To surface in unruffled clothes A feat of perfect co-ordination, He shows his catch, in celebration.
