Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Goldfish learns to be himself.

Frank

by HarryT

 
Goldfish Frank boasted incessantly...
Thought he was the smartest in the tank;
He swam around and around, bragging,
"I'm the best fish in this whole big bowl!"
The other fish laughed and said, "No way!"

Frank was upset when they laughed at him
Swam to the bottom, sat there and sulked.
Muttering, "You guys will see some day."
Fish swam, no attention did they pay

One sweet girl fish took pity on Frank
And said, "Come back and swim with us all
Don't need to be the best to have friends
You still can be a pretty neat fish
Just be yourself, have fun, and be kind
And you'll be a cool fish in our tank."
 
Frank listened and did what she said now...
He cheerfully swims with his friends.
