Pets
Absolutely not! My mother said to me, When I asked her for a dog that was big as a tree, He'll gobble all the food that we have in the house, Why don't you get a smaller pet like a hamster or a mouse. But a mouse ain't quite large enough to get the job done right, He's got to be there by my side when my brother wants to fight!

The Pilot
 A flying fish is an ocean pilot,
A swerving,
speedy,
flying riot.
Bigger fish are deep sea bullies,
Who seek to eat the small fish fully.
But the flying fish has a get-away plan
To avoid the heat of a frying pan.
Like a sailing boat, it catches wind.
The predators remains chagrined.
Above the ocean waves it soars,
While bigger fish find more to lure.
Word Bank
Chagrined -means annoyed
lure means trap
Figurative
