It Never Gets Old

No matter how many times I've seen it, the birth of fry never gets old.
No matter how many new blooms I see on my plants, it never gets old. Each new plant life, each new fry is met with the same joy as the last, the one before that and the one before that.
Beautiful bright scales, mating dances, even when they establish rank, I enjoy watching it.
I've seen my Bettas pass through Wisteria roots a thousand times, each time as beautiful as the first.
I search for the perfect rock for Betta tanks, the perfect piece of driftwood to work and get ready for a future tank.
I consider plant options and challenge myself to try new ones.
I read and re-read the dos and don'ts of aquarium keeping and I view photos and blogs by passionate keepers who might inspire and offer insight to this lover of aquatic life.
This craft
This art,
Never gets old.

Comment by Robert Jango on February 20, 2013 at 11:22pm: That was truly beautiful Faith. You've surpassed even your own high standards on this one. Oh! That reminds me: my guppy just had babies and I've got to feed them to the Angelfish.
