Fish Wishes

If wishes were fishes
I'd learn how to swim
Below all the seaweed
In salt and in dim

I'd search all the hiding spots
Beneath the docks
I'd follow the current
Past sand and past rocks

But beware the octopus
Under the sea -
He might catch the fish that 
Would bring you to me

If that were to happen
('Tis likely, you know)
I'd give up my quest
For more fishes below

Instead I would rise
And take wing to the sky -
For sometimes, the fishes
They learn how to fly. 


This lovely flying fish was found here
