A fish out of water




 A little fish was swimming
when suddenly there came a net
and fished him out of the water
all slippery and scared and wet.

The fish was in a panic -
he was sure that this was the end,
he closed his eyes and prayed,
wishing for help from a friend.

The fisherman was listening
and heard the murmured wish,
he threw him back into the water,
saving the little fish.


Featured: Made these pencil cases
for my little nephews

Your darling little fish! I'm so happy one was caught by a kind fisherman who heard his wish. The little fish out of water reminds me of moments when I was much younger and did feel like a fish out of water, not a comfortable feeling at all. I wish your pencil cases were for sale!
Love to you, Dewena
