The Gold Fins

Excited for tomorrow,

Harley picks out her clothes.

While packing her backpack, she

makes sure to

bring her baby blue polaroid camera

her mom got for her on her birthday.

Her mother loved fish and

sea animals.

Before she passed, Harley wanted

to be a photographer just like

her mom.

On the way to the aquarium she

counted all of the coins

she would throw in the

wishing well, 38¢.

That year her mother would

have turned 38. Scoping through

the aquarium was

inspiring for little Harley.

Seeing all of the fish

was her favorite part of the field trip.

And when she got home

she showed her father then hung them

up next to the pictures of

her mom and her with

a similar fish and the gold fins.
