My Silver Beauties

To the sparkling sphere, Filled in with crystal like water, And hanging emerald greenish plants, I displaced little zebra fishes My dad had brought, yesterday from the city Dived in to deep They errantly started swimming Wobbling in the water Their bright thick black lines parallel to each On their gleaming body Resembled like the silver lining In the shady clouded sky Hurrying to the top to have Fish feed I sprinkled Then dangling in the greenish plants, Quivering their tail They appeared as Vibrant gems with vivid colors Dazzling, as it is to watch 'em I spent ample of time Gazing at the striped beauties. Bidding good bye to them, As i go to bed Savoring their beauty. Every morn they give A feast to my eyes And coming back from school I rush to my toddler fishes- They being my whole world! Dozing, dining and doing my chores I couldn't think of anything else, My fine zebra fishes. Wading through the water, Fascinated me like nothing before. Getting up one morning Breaking apart dreams, I rushed to the sparkling globe To find my alluring fishes Moving only by the current of water! As my heart sank, a tear drop From my welled up eyes Streamed down my cheeks Into the water and became one with The water that held my silver beauties!
