The Rebel

He spins through the pond.
The bluegill avoids sharp teeth
and eats a minnow.

Hello UB, this reminded me of growing up on the farm where we had a pond that we stocked with Bass and Bluegill. I think, to this day, it still has relatives of the fish that existed when I was a boy. Blessings, Daniel
