elegy

there's a shallow euphony
where the sound of bubbles
and life once resonated

we buried him out back
with the daffodil bulbs

  1. thank's craig.

    you're both sweethearts.

    i'm dealing alright now. like any death, it's difficult to swallow. i took wibble's car out of the water to dry up. i'll clean it up a bit, and we're going to put it somewhere in the house as a decorative memorial to wibble. he loved his car. and how many goldfish do you know with their own car?

    it's just sad to see an empty tank...

    but i'm really okay with it.

    now, let's all think healthy kitty thoughts for the little orange fuzzyball sleeping under my bed.

  2. He was probably the most loved fish I ever heard of. I didn't get my own car until age 19, and he had one at two.

    I'm sending good energy to Max right nooooow! -K
