The Silver Herring In The Pool Of The Moon by Mike Williams 01/18/2016 @ 3:43 P.M.

The silver herring in the pool of the moon, 
Wondered its way to the crystal sea. 
To danced in the starlight aflicker and swoon, 
And ebb and flow with the tide easily. 

It darted delightful amid waves and foam, 
And swirled around as happy as can be. 
But knowing that there is no place like home, 
The little fish in mirrored waters journeyed. 

Back to where the life was simple and free, 
where the air is filled with the song of the loon. 
Far and away from the crystal sea, 
The silver herring in the pool of the moon.
