There once was a fish
from Grayling Michigan,
Who wished with all his heart
to be a little boy again.
But an evil Sea Witch
had cast a spell and
When next he awoke
he had fins and a tail!
His mommy and daddy
he thought missed him a lot
He was four foot tall
with a frog named Sir Lancelot!
He missed his friends
and even his bedroom
And all of his cars
that went zoom zoom!
One day while he was swimming
he saw a magical mermaid
He swam to her wondering
if she could make the spell fade.
“Yes, I can” she replied,
“But there is something you must do
Because once, I was a little girl
when the witch cursed me too!”
“But what can I do?
I’m just a little fish.”
“You’ll swim up the river with a message
and I will grant you your wish.”
“Take this note to my parents
to meet me here under the moon.
Then we can be normal again
and seal the evil witch’s doom.”
So the little fish swam
and swam with all his might.
He could be a little boy again
as soon as tonight!
Up the river he went
even swimming under a boat!
He knew his chore was important
so he’d deliver the note.
The mermaid lived
in a really big house.
But how could he get in there?
he surely wasn’t a mouse!
Then he saw a big dog
at the stream where he’d swam
But he couldn’t remember
did dogs eat fish or ham?
He thought really hard
and came up with a plan
He’d give the dog the note
and ask him to give it to the man.
The big dog just nodded
then trotted on his way.
As the little fish swam
back to the mermaid, he’d pray.
The moon shone bright
on that dark, dark day.
He and the mermaid waited
her parents were on their way.
When out from the shadows
walked her mom and her dad.
Oh goodness!! He thought,
she wore a big pointy hat!
She said, “Alla kazoom
and alla kazzat”
Then POOF! he had all
his arms and legs back!
He smiled real big
and watched the mermaid with a grin.
Not a trace of scales
not even a fin!
While everyone thought
she was finally gone,
The evil sea witch rose screeching,
“What have you done?!?”
The mermaid’s mom turned
with a devious grin,
“Abracadabra, and alla kazoo
your powers are gone, you’ll not spell again.”
The evil witch screamed
as the river swallowed her whole,
“She can’t bother you now
time to get you home, let’s go!”
The little boy walked
smiling with his new friend
“We can be friends forever
and thank you, again!”
THE END
