I went to Disneyland in California. Birds flew through the windows into our hotel room like bandits making off with berries and croissant from our breakfast. We encouraged our guests to stay a while. They were long blue steel like birds with steely blue tails and piercing yellow eyes.

We rode roller coaster 10 times in a row in a span of 30 minutes. We rode the rides until brain damaged and exhausted. I begged leave of my friends.

Dizzy and dehydrated I discovered this this cool shaded Koi pond outside our hotel. The sun was casting a golden patterned light across the pond. The fish glowed in flashes: flaring orange like the sun; mirrored swaths of golden sculptures, and radiant ivory tusks.

Like a windswept fury I ran into my room startling some friends who had also decided to chill out from the heat and rush of the rides. I flashed them my camera and with a smile ran down the stairs to the Koi pond below.

In a rush of childlike abandon I was stunned as I saw that the whole school of them had gathered in a sunny spot becoming a swirling galaxy of starry light.

"One Fish two fish red fish blue fish"
By: Dr. Seuss

one fish two fish red fish blue fish
black fish blue fish old fish new fish
some are red and some are blue.
some are old and some are new.

some are sad and some are glad.
And some are very, very bad.
Why are they sad and glad and bad?
I dont know. Go ask your dad.

Some are thin and some are fat.
The fat one has a yellow hat.
From there to here, from here to there,
funny things everywhere.

Here are some who like to run.
They run for fun in the hot, hot sun
Oh me! Oh my!Oh me! Oh my!
what alot of funny things go by.

Some have two feet and some have four.
Some have six feet and some have more.
Where do they come from?
I cant say.

But i bet they have come a long, long way.
We see them come.We see them go.
Some are fast.
And some are slow.

Some are high. And some are low
Not one of them is like another.
Don't as us why.
Go ask your mother.
