Silly Little Fish

I am a silly little fish, I swim against the flow, While other fishes go along the stream, The river has chosen their path. They see other fishes around them, Swimming together, diving in cadences alike, I go against their beat, composing my own music. They see the mates of shared interests, And once a while, some disoriented beings like me passing by, A few moments to criticize, they continue their journey, And I sing my melodies and waltz to its notes. Hence, I am a silly little fish, I swim against the flow, While my mates see each other sharing the rhythms of the river, I see emerald trees, azure sky and magnificent rocks along the way.
