a garden that makes paths underfoot

thinking of a space that will hold me
and those that will learn with me
paths created as we walk
underfoot in the directions most taken
in angles to force your attention to change;
the water is thick enough to walk on
but smooth for the schools of fish
roofs to keep you out of the rain
but nearby to hear the droplets hit
goldfish remind you how you’re alive!
they remind me to feed myself
and float (physically or emotionally or mentally)
the space responds to you!
it shows you itself
and you grow alongside each other
intertwined and independent
