This is one of the dark poetry which I wrote as a writing exercise. Dark poetry is not my usual genre. I had fun writing it.
a murder mystery
occured at three o’clock
nobody’s around at noon
only a mutt roaming the morgue
here laying horizontal
a koi once was coy
would it be the furry feline
who is licking its lilac coat
or the hunt alone heron
who is parading the pasture
the crime scene creates suspicion
blue-green algae blankets afloat
the floppy leaved floating lilies
consealing goldfish’s corpses
tainted water toxic pond
poisonous plant
inflicted the innocents
unusual mystery unravelled
Flicker of Thoughts 
that poor koi 😦

Oh shame for the fish! I had some beautiful koi but the water in the pond went bad one summer and they all died. I still feel guilty.

Excellent dark murder mystery poem at the pond. I wanted it to be the heron, but, ha, it was the algae in the end!
