CALAMITY CATFISH

Picture
Calamity Catfish
the king of the waves
watched over his kingdom
with a very stern gaze

He swooped through his kingdom
with formidable grace
and protected his subjects
from all sides, in case

At times a sly predator
strayed into their pool
to cause naughty havoc
within the fish school

His mother once told him
you’re king of the walk
so he took on the job
with the eyes of a hawk

Protecting his fishlings
with expandable powers
that widened at times
even in the small hours

Calamity Catfish
the king of the waves
watched over his kingdom
with a very stern gaze



See me on.......
