Goldie the Goldfish

An emotional poem for my pet Goldie the Goldfish.

You are the charm of my little bowl,

Your skin and scale so orange

Like a pleasing sunset. I extol

your charm that no one can challenge.

I am happy as a clam,

whenever I struck with your glance,

Even during my toughest exam,

Seeing you means my luck is enhanced.

I love how you eat

Like a bird feeds on seeds.

How can I forget your sweet

water bubbles which everybody heeds.

O, Goldie! You are the precious part of my kin,

"Don't ever leave me", came a voice from within.

Author's Note

You would fall in love with her on the very first sight!

Very cute poem, and just from your description in this one I can just imagine how much joy Goldie must bring you.
"You are the charm of my little bowl,
Your skin and scale so orange
Like a pleasing sunset. I extol
your charm that no one can challenge."
That first stanza starts this one off great here, and I loved this poem. Good job!

I how I love goldfish and to watch them swim- my favourite are the bubble eye ones- have had many- so graceful - always wondered how it must be just swimming around and around- reminds me of the song- ‘ I wish you were here ‘, Pink Floyd- wonderful and peaceful are your words🌹

I had two fish and they lasted for two years and I was so sad when they died because even though they were just fish, I still grew to love them. Great job!

[Raj Sahu]

Oh! This is really sad. Thank you.
