Welcome to My Virtual Fish Stall!


Here in Telangana State, especially in our city of Hyderabad,

Seafood is on sale in plenty; though this area is landlocked,

Imports have gone up; from the surrounding States,

Thanks to fish lovers; especially the Bengalees,

And the Malayalees,

Great seafood lovers like us.

At any exclusive fish market,

Like the one at Begum Bazaar in Hyderabad,

Or the one at Ramnagar in Secunderabad,

Or at any seafood stall at any supermarket,

There are many tasty varieties available,

But the prices of the best are becoming formidable.

The demand and the prices are spiralling,

But at any cost, we have to eat fish,

Because we love their taste,

And because they are nutritious,

High in protein which makes us stronger,

And lower in fat which makes us live longer.

Thank the fishes that come to our plates,

In countless delicious ways,

And make our every meal a great meal,

So don’t miss fish due to prices,

Or keep searching stores to get a great deal,

Just come to my (Ha, Ha!) Fish Stall!
