Oh I wish I wish that I really was a fish.
Not a kind of fish that ends up on a dish,
But the type of fish you just couldn't miss.

I'd love to be a symbol of Love like the Koi,
and not just a plaything for any girl or boy.
but a carefree little thing full of glee and joy.

Oh life as a fish, wouldn't that just be grand?
But alas, with my pencil in hand,
I find that I am forever stuck on dry land.

I admire the playful rhymes and the turnaround at the end. Thanks.

I find that I am forever stuck on dry land.

I wish I were a fish too
The kind of fish swimming free
In the ocean
Where there are no textbooks, no laws, no burdens,
but only freedom and random.

I wish and I wish
but I'm still not a fish.
It's not so bad after all.
I don't have to worry about
becoming other big fish's dish.

Hi, Skyfire.

It's enjoyable to read this short poem of yours; it's delightful, descriptive, and playful.
