Fish Pond

A stone path leads to a circular stone hole in ground,
Layers of rock and small boulders pile up to create a covering,
Water inside is covered by debris of leaves and branches,
Lily pads accompany some bits of algae inside.

Inside the fish pond, it's one solitary gold fish swimming,
It needs a buddy to befriend with, or to mate,
A blue ceramic turtle is on top of the stone layering,
This is outside my condo, right in front, with a working water fountain.
