Tiny Fishes

Tiny fishes in a pond, lake, or stream: The big-eat-small society Born to be fear A naive action implies death. Tiny assumes a good food for big Tiny has to evade the fisher’s net Tiny has to conceal the kingfisher’s eyes Sadly, sometimes the sunlight Boils the freshwater community If the tiny fishes have wings like the birds They would fly away from the daily dangers. Poor people suffer and can’t escape Neither natural nor man-made crisis!
