| Don't you just love your fish?
Sitting and watching them in the twilight, swimming slowly and magesticly in the cool water. Aren't they wonderful with the winter sheen on them, and fine, full bodies, of the summer of good food you were happy to feed them?
And the colors of the gosanke, come to full fruition. The snow white, the incandescent blaze of the hi, the long, black winter night of sumi. As all the forces of nature come round at the return of the light, the winter solstice approaches, as you sit by the pond and one white star appears.
This is what its about. The koi show in your pond, every morning, afternoon, and especially, evening. |
