Casting my Pearls before Swine

I saw the moon and thought to ask her for her hand.

She said something I couldn't understand, so I let her be.

I spoke to the mountain and thought I made her mine.

I left before she could tell me otherwise.

She might still be my one and only.

I gave a fish a ring

And told her to be careful

(It was very precious to me)

She swallowed it whole and swam away.

She was just a damn fish.
