A Children’s Poem
by Artie Knapp (USA)
the author has an excellent story site: Knapptime Stories
We all know fish come from the sea,
And that stars are in the sky;
But little did I know, that one day,
Both would drop on by.
She fell to the ground one starry night,
And unbeknownst to me;
There’s much more to a starfish,
Than what I had perceived!
She beamed when she laughed,
And was quick with a joke;
Even still, she was very shy,
And hid behind a cloak!
A slight right past Jupiter,
Was where she missed her turn;
But the little starfish just chuckled,
At least I didn’t burn!
Knowing she is with me,
Brings me so much joy;
And the best thing about her,
She’s sweeter than any toy.
THE END
