FLYING FISH! OH FLYING FISH!
Flying fish! oh flying fish!
Now i’ve wished my winsome wish,
Random chance or blindest fate
Water wings with weightless weight.
In what ether, thin and high,
Rose the shimmer of your eye?
Did the angels give a hand -
Not the water, not the land?
Hunted high and hunted low
Mahi Mahi from below.
From above, the Frigates dive.
Wings - the way to stay alive.
What could form so slight a thing -
Breezes light and ripple’s ring?
Who loosed the sinews of my heart?
What the science, what the art?
Nature slow or Godly Speed
Helix spiral or piper’s reed?
Below the surface - above the deep
Did She who made the whale make thee?
Flying fish! oh flying fish!
Now i’ve wished my winsome wish,
Random chance or blindest fate -
Water wings with weightless weight
