Now that I’ve got my fish lens
I take pictures of my fish friends
I dive down deep among the fishes
Hoping I won’t be their dishes
And always with utmost discretion
I get up close for their expression
And if I get up real near
I might win “Photo of the Year”
But even if I don’t win prizes
I like fish – all shapes and sizes
I really like them hotsy-totsy
For I’m a fish freak paparazzi
