For My Fish

Four little fish
Is what I had
And for them all
My heart
Sure was glad
One died quickly
Yes far too soon

My poor little Rollo
I sure do miss you
After that
Three fish remained
And boy did they ever
Make my day

But that damn tank
Unfortunately it seemed
I just could not
Keep it freaking clean
Although I cleaned it

Almost every other day
So I finally got
A better filter
Shiny and new
And asked them
Please Just hang on
For one more day
Help is on the way
But one more day
They could not do
Now their tank is empty
As I am left to grieve
Now I know
They may have
Been fish
Not a puppy or a kitten

But with those
Little fish
I sure was smitten
So Floki, Ragnar, Bjorn,
And of course my little Rollo
Thank you for being
The best part of my day
RIP little guys
