If I were a fish in the ocean <br />I'm sure I'd have the notion <br />to swim alone in the great big sea, <br />not bunched up in a school, not free. <br />I'd swim the Atlantic, <br />the Pacific too <br />and when I tired <br />before I was through <br />I'd beach myself and lie on the shore, <br />happy and content with all I explore. <br />But this a a fish dream <br />for a fishy fool. <br />For see how I'm swimming. <br />I'm in a school.<br /><br />Edwina Reizer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-fish-story-2/
