The Silver Fish
Performed by Renae for a play at E.C.A., Spain. Age 13, May, 2007
| While fishing in the blue lagoon, I caught a lovely silver fish, And he spoke to me, “My boy,” quoth he, “Please set me free and I’ll grant your wish: A kingdom of wisdom? A palace of gold? Or all the fancies your mind can hold? And I said, “O.K.” and I set him free, But he laughed at me as he swam away, And left me whispering my wish Into a silent sea. |
Today I caught that fish again (That lovely silver prince of fishes), And once again he offered me, If I would only set him free, Any one of a number of wishes, If I would throw him back to the fishes. He was delicious! Shel Silverstein |
