The Fish by SP
Breeze breeze the music of the wind,
The soul of the acrobat
Grazes water and passes by
Before somersaulting,
Disappears into the sky.
Golden granules shine brightly.
A glittering body
Dives down the deepest part.
It prances through
An aquamarine current.
Swimming freely is
The happiest moment in its life.
Joins others and creates
The symphony of dancing and singing
No fear of being trapped.
Enjoys the ever lasting
Giggling ocean and peeking rainbow.
In writing this poem, it took three days for me to finish it. Then, at first, I was going to publish my poem by writing it on the ground in different places. However, I changed my mind and decided to make Pla-ta-pian, woven fish, because they should be able to attract people. These woven fish are originally made from coconut leaves, but I used papers instead. It took me a day to make forty of these and attached poems to them. A week later, I published my poems around the Science World because I volunteered for the Dragon Boat Festival. Most people were nice when I went up to them and asked if they were interested in reading my poems. Even though I was daunted in the beginning, I felt more confident later on. Also, I published my poem on Facebook and Instagram. I got forty-two likes on Facebook and twenty-six likes on Instagram. Many people told me that the fish are cute and they could see the image when they read my poems.
