Freddy the Fish Goes to the Carnival (A Cautionary Tale)

Freddy the Fish, happy as can be,
Ran into the fair whilst swimming through the sea.
All the rides looked fun
As they glistened in the sun,
But fun can turn to fright, so take care.

Brightly adorned with feathers and flair
Sat all of the rides at the annual fair.
Freddy was warned 'bout the dangers they brought,
Yet it was a thrill that young Freddy sought.
Beware, my Freddy, beware!

Scalawag Pete
Sat in his seat
With rod and hook and bait in hand
Waiting silently, patiently
For something to bite.

Fred did not see the sharpened point
That hid below the orange cheese;
All it takes is just one bite
To get you hauled out of the seas.
