The Shellfish

The Shellfish

	The Selfish Shellfish 
Had a pearl inside of its own,
	One day he thought to himself,
“Why can’t I have more pearls to myself”,
	So he went on a 
Search for even more pearls,
	“Looks like my
Neighbor is now sleeping”,
	He knocked on 
The Shell, “Anyone There”,
	The other Shell
Awoke is a somber tone,
	“You want my pearl,
Well climb on in and get it”, 
	The Selfish Shellfish
Did and, then the Larger Shell went, Ah—  Glup.
