Filled to the Gills
You flirt with me. I blush.
A rush.
I flirt right back. A ploy.
I’m koi.
A game of fish? I nod.
We cod …
here in our aquapod.
I’ve such affinity
for scales. Divinity
in this, our scrod ballade.

(Notes: One of the Big Tent Poetry prompts was to write something 'as though you were a fish' and One Stop Poetry's prompt for today was to write about a work of art. Using Jennifer Ardonlino's Deco Fish 4, I combined the two inspirations into one playful deep-sea Ovillejo love poem.)
