Fishy Fanatics

What would you do, if you did, get up close and personal with a fish. Would you ask him a generic q, like 'where's the nearest public loo?' Or try your best to respect, his blubbering, southern dialect. Granted I would be quite phased, and think I'd gone rather crazed. But once past that, I'd marvel too, and tour the underwater zoo. Find out just what fish do for fun, take a bask in midday sun. Or play a game they call flippers, the trout are up against the kippers. Just maybe fish could be my friend? How though, when their day could end, chomped down deep inside my tummy, fish and chips, oh, they are so yummy. I couldn't ever keep such truth, about my peckish, junk-filled youth. But knowing how they live and play, such fun and laughs within the bay. I think I'll leave it just for now, if my stomach will allow. Mind over matter, it can be done, a meat free life can be fun. And maybe I can bring a friend, make talking fish the newest trend. Help everyone around me see, that fishes, are like you and me. 05.26.2020 Contest: Brian's Choice V Sponsor: Brian Strand
