Dead Goldfish poem

[Claudia Mahlman <Claudia_Mahlman@k12bangor.maine.com>]

Hi,


I just had a fourteen-year old student ask me for a copy of a poem about a =
dead-floating goldfish. She thinks it was titled: Ode to a Gold Fish. The o=
pening line was something like: Old dear goldfish, but she is not sure.


I have several older copies of Indexes to Poetry, but had no luck.  Does an=
yone have any idea what this poem is and who the poet was?
