Fish Bowl

A vase space filled to the brim
with liquid substance, 
a place that is called home.

In this space contains there home, 
the bowl is filled in steps, 
very precise steps,
so that the inhabitants will survive.
First the rock and plants, 
next the water, followed by the filter.

Only after their home has been created,
precisely created to their exact liking
can they finally be brought home,
to live in their delightful fish bowl.

[A/N] Was originally going to be about fish, but somehow ended up being about their home.
