fish on the floor

After forty-four years here,

my oldest best Boulder friend up and left town.

Put her dog and her cat and her fish into her car

 and moved to Apalachicola,

 of all places.

The fish were so thrilled,

 it took one of em just a couple of days

to launch itself up out of the bowl

and onto the floor.

I used Caran d'Ache pencils 

to memorialize the poor little tyke.
