Tonight, as I passed on my way to the
bedroom, a sad sight greeted my eyes.
Draco, the Beta Fish, passed on some
time today.

My only companion for a year and a half,
this loving little guy put up with my
forgetfulness and me shuffling cards
next to his desk. He lovingly put up
with car trips every other week and me
fighting with him over changing his tank
(even in death he refused to leave until
I had to nearly up end the tank).

So as you sit here, reading this, I hope
you spend a moment in silence, thinking
of my happy blue guy, and hoping he has
a better life wherever he is now, with a
big pond and an automatic feeder so he
doesn’t have to give anyone his pouty
look to get food.
