The Winter Fish

by Arianna Sood aged 11

Winter, oh winter, how I love you so!
You bring me Snowflake, you make me behold.
She is pearly white with scowls like snow,
But will depart in the summer flow.

As the leaves turn green,
She turns black,
As we get healthy,
That’s all she lacks.

But the November snow
Is what she needs,
Before the fatal blow,
Oh Snowflake you’re my favourite fish!

In the hotness of the summer
One life lost
One heart broken
The summer of despair

As the leaves turn green,
She turns black,
As we get healthy,
That’s all she lacks.

But the November snow,
Is what she needs,
Before the fatal blow,
Oh Snowflake, you’re my favourite fish!
