I always wanted
To be a fish.
To swim with agility
and grace.
To roam the water,
And dance with the waves.
To swim around the world
And back.

But if I am a fish,
I would be eaten too quickly,
by predators lurking,
in the shadows of the deep sea.
I would get poisoned,
or poached,
or suffer from global warming,
Each day I would wait for,
Something to destroy me.

Unless i am born again,
as a fish,
I can not
be a Fish
But I want to save the fish,
of the vast ocean.
They are
Agile
Graceful creatures
and I dream of being a fish.
