Croak! Says the Sea Robin

Searobin

     by Johann Heupel
A fisherman sailing across the bay
Will probably find a Triglidae.

The searobin sounds like a toad,
Who is making a gas bladder ode.

His fins let him walk on two feet
Like he is walking down Fish Street.

His eyes are electric robin’s egg blue
And he is red like a robin too!

    Great job, Johann. I think you have inherited your great grandfather’s (and your mother’s)poetic proclivity!!

    Quite a rhythm of chosen words. Short as it may, but superb in wording and amusing in meaning.
