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!

Lol! Absolutely charming, Raj. I've never heard of anyone falling in love with a goldfish before! This made me smile, always a good thing. Most enjoyable.

Apart from some awkwardness in Stanza 3, I really enjoyed this poem. A nice ode to your goldfish. It really brings out the magic of her presence and how much she means to you. Well done!
