Tony, I raised a little frog once, right from a tadpole. I don't think I fed them enough, this was the last one to survive mass cannibalism..!

Well said. Quite an experience, especially to those of us who love the little creatures.

A lesson to us all
just as birds are not meant to live in a cage so fish are not meant to live in a bowl!!  (Nice pic imagined you older actually!)

I love seeing pictures of bloggers.  Somehow it adds something special for me when I read.

well, well...
fishes have nothing to do in a bowl anyway... i guess this one is lucky... no matter where s/he ended up...

but sad your little girl lost her friend

btw, nice to put a face on your words

Yeah... Fish are tough.

None of my friend's have ever had a fish that lasted long. Nice poem about it ,at least!

Also wanted to say, thanks for commenting in my blog recently. ^_^ My internet is unexpectedly limited, so I chose to visit other people's blogs, instead of answering comments in my own. So, I wanted to say thank you here!

We had some fish once, those darned things just would not die!!  They are okay to look at as long as they are someone else's

Tony -
Yeah, my goldfish always died too. That's why I moved to dogs. They seem to fare better with me.
