Golden School


  A  L  O  H  A 
From
Honolulu
Kindness, resilience and the quiet courage to lift others up, form the gentle rhythm that carries a life well lived. Roentare


School of Goldfish
all the same—
this way, that way
endlessly fascinating!

Not one leads,
none lag behind;
a single thought
they turn as one. 

And in their circling
I see us:
how we move together
how we find our way
by following the turn
of someone we trust.

Goldfish don’t need a plan—
they have each other,
and in that simple truth
swims something deep:
we are never lost
when we move 
together as one.

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what
you now have was once among the things
you only hoped for. Epicurus

Morning light
my gentle friend,
Warm my skin
night's at it's end
Thank you, light,
for waking me,
To all the joy
the day will be.
Cloudia

So lovely. I especially love the line, "We are never lost when we move together as one"

The first photo took my breath away, Cloudia, and I loved Pixie's observation of the goldfish moving together. Thanks for this inspiration!

Ya gonna need a bigger tank for all of those gold fishies. Me thinks the dandy ducks are hanging out in Southern California. Definitely a ducky party going on. Hawaii doesn't have that many Mallards does it? Linda in Kansas
