A little fish and the question of a big fish<\/p>\n

Swallow me
\nSaid the little fish
\nKnowing there wasn’t much choice
\nShe was willing to self sacrifice
\nBut even in the deep ocean
\nRays of justice do some times penetrate
\nThe big fish wasn’t willing to swallow her
\nSurrendered prey didnot taste well, may be
\nThe joy of vanquishing the creatures in front
\nWasn’t going to be lost
\nBig fish asked the little one
\nWill you answer my question! If you do
\nYou get swallowed
\nElse. You will stay as it is
\nSome other day
\nSome other fish will devour you <\/p>\n

Little one was was curious.
\nWill the coral reefs make a better house under the sea
\nOr above it
\nThe big fish knew
\nLot of people living on the coast
\nWere collecting corals to make their houses <\/p>\n

She had no trouble in answering the question
\nOf course under the sea
\nBy that time
\nA poacher had set eyes
\nOn her
\nHe caught the little one
\nFor keeping her in an aquarium
\nIn his new house
\nMade by corals
\nThe big fish smiled and swam away <\/p>\n

The little one didnot know
\nDid she survive
\nTo be trapped in a house
\nOf corals
\nWhat if she had answered otherwise
\nMay be she would have been devoured by the big fish
\nThat would been under the sea
\nNow she wasn’t sure<\/p>\n

Big fish comes above the water some times
\nHoping for a tsunami
\nSo that the jar gets broken
\nAnd the little one can come back to
\nsea <\/p>\n
