Why was he so downturned?
This guppy needed a swivel
To turn that frown upside-down.
Then he’d change from downturned
To upturned or would advice be spurned?
So should I ask if there is strife
In his little guppy life?
Maybe his scales are itchy?
That would make him twitchy
How grim to be unable
To find the edge of a table
For a good long scratch
At that itchy patch
And chase away that sea louse
Which was the cause of his grouse.
