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!
