Image: Fish Bowl on the Move (here)
She gingerly cupped the bowl in her tiny hands
Barely able to hold it safely in between sobs
She profusely uttered all of her sincere thanks
For the purchase to the Uncle she so adored
She had come face to face and was swayed
With the then forlorn-looking little 'Nemo'
Which in no time was given a home to stay
Instead of an old aquarium in one corner
Now outgrown in size Nemo had been a dare
If only it could be led around safely on a leash
they could then explore the outdoors as a pair
Despite the downside Nemo still got her wish!

ReplyDeleteHappy for him to get out... but maybe he will prefer the sea in the end...
ReplyDeleteGreat fun to read Hank.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Aw! This was charming.
ReplyDeleteThere is something magical about the picture and the opening lines of your poem convey the joy of the gift. Sadly, pets may be neglected as children grow up.
