The journey of the Koi

In tranquil pools where lilies bloom,
Beneath the sun’s soft, golden loom,
The koi unite in vibrant throng,
Rippling currents where they belong.

With scales of gold and copper bright,
They dance in shadows, a vivid sight,
In search of realms where whispers dwell,
Through mystic waters, their story to tell.

From quiet depths to rushing streams,
They weave through dreams, in moonlight beams,
Curious hearts, they venture bold,
Seeking the mysteries yet untold.

With every leap and spiral whirl,
They chase elusive tides that swirl,
Embracing paths of fate unknown,
Awash in currents, their courage grown.

Through tangled reeds and drifting leaves,
They learn of life, of loss that cleaves,
Yet still they glide, as fate bestows,
The wisdom found where the river flows.

On shores unseen, they come to rest,
In waters deep, where hope is blessed,
Forever changed by the journey’s mark,
The koi, in silence, ignite the spark.

So heed the tale of koi’s delight,
In endless dance through day and night,
For rippling currents softly call,
To find the unknown, to rise and fall.
