Poem
Hubby will NEVER let Dragon and me go to a pet store! Ever! Again! It started when we needed Dog chow for all our really big dogs… then… Dragon found the fish, with some being sold for only 15 cents apiece… We were told; they’re sold for others to eat. Oh, No! Say it isn’t so! EEP! Now, we believe, in save the whales, and every other gall darn thing. And Dragon and I believe that the heart grows with everyone added in. We were ready to cry, so we made a simple Momma and Dragon, foray. We decided to save two more lives and then to bring them home. Yeah! Don’t know how it happened, our plan got out of hand, but it was so grim! We went back, many times, buying them all, filling our tank to the brim, We spread the word, to help the goldfish, and so others hearts could grow. Hubby said they had to go, so we gave them to people every where, so… With 4 remaining, we decided to keep them at our house, safe and sound. But low and behold, they kept growing quickly bigger, as they swam around! Dragon wanted to take the goldfish for a walk, and to play with Santa Jack. And the penguins kept coming around, looking for their midnight snack! OK, maybe we didn’t think this thru, Yet, Tho, Still, Something wasn’t right! They’re growing way to fast! From a 10 gallon tank to 150… In a week? OK! Dragon what did you do? You took your Elvin magic gift, given to you? OK! Spit it out! What did you do! You sprinkled the four fish, a little, did you? Oh! NO! So we put them into the lake! And before The Elfin King was found… We had the first Fresh Water Goldfish Whales, ever were or are… to be found! We started the first Midwest Whale herding society, and when the Elvin King… Was found, He & Grandpa Troll, were joyously rolling, in tears, on the ground! By this time, like Dragon, they needed tons of food to eat…so we decided to… Rent them out, to eat Asian Carp, who are, menacing, destructive & misguided! Darned if it didn’t work! You know! Serendipity, low and behold! The answer! The Agricultural Department was happily beside themselves… That is after… They got over, that quirky and somewhat strange, Goldfish Whale, thingy part! So, life goes on happily, especially for those Goldfish Whales munching on carp. And yes, they’ve finally stopped growing, I am happy to say, and have big hearts. And those menacing Asian Carp won’t be such a menace, from now on... Today! As, ‘Alls well, that ends well’… and with great relief… I am wont to say... And now Nobody's eating these babies, after Dragon had his way!
