flashing tail fins darting under and behind Lilli pad leaves white and orange coy circle beneath the bamboo – undefined spots blend giving a swirling kaleidoscope to tiny fish bodies Heron camouflage – sitting on a hand crafted wooden bench I toss flakes into the water enjoying the quick surfacing and instantaneous dive of my scaly entertainers another few flakes another whirlpool – a large orange and brown fishy swims precariously close to me gently I dangle two fingers into the drink six inch coy barely mouths and nudges my fingertips I think I just got to pet my pet fish –

coy encounter
flashing tail fins darting under and behind Lilli pad leaves white and orange coy circle beneath the bamboo – undefined spots blend giving a swirling kaleidoscope to tiny fish bodies Heron camouflage – sitting on a hand crafted wooden bench I toss flakes into the water enjoying the quick surfacing and instantaneous dive of my scaly entertainers another few flakes another whirlpool – a large orange and brown fishy swims precariously close to me gently I dangle two fingers into the drink six inch coy barely mouths and nudges my fingertips I think I just got to pet my pet fish –
