Welcome to Koi Joy at my house. Some photographs speak for themselves but I can’t resist adding a few words today. This is my 500th post on Mary’s View.
Spring cleaning
reveals our true colors.
Let go of winter's appeal for resting.
Rid.
Rid.
Rid of the tea water and
old algae that suffocates and clogs.
Rid of sludge and decay
rid of everything that bundles
laugh and smile
because it’s time to be busy with growth,
to get moving,
to see the sun
to feel the heat, and
to see the sun
to feel the heat, and
to get jiggy wid it.
Sow some wild oats!
Free!
Swirl and gush and look
for brighter days.
Ahhhh.
Dance.
Spin on your feet with arms wide open.
Love.
It's Spring, once again.

My husband would be jealous of your fish!

Mary, your skill with the camera and your ability to put words to the images is incredible! Yours is my very favourite blog!
Your Koi are beautiful, Mary!
Beautiful clear water and beauteous koi...love the pictures.
Odd coincidence, check my blog for this coming Wednesday 3/24, you must have been channeling....
Ohhhhhh Mary! These are the best looking Koi that I've seen in a long time! WOW!
Oh, May- You are like soft summer air after months of wind chill factors!
Love it, love you.
I want your camera, your koi, your eyes. Better yet, you do it and keep sharing.
Every year I probably say it and yet here it is... I don't think I've ever been so glad to see spring come! So there! :c)
Gee, you do a great job of keeping your pond clean!
When are you coming to WingHaven? :)
Mary Lee - I pay a pro to clean it once a year. And, I haven't had a day off since Christmas...Wing Haven is in the back of my mind...somewhere.
I'm glad you all like the photos. I had a wonderful time in the sun yesterday. Everything was so brilliant! Now, rain.
All of those photos are gorgeous but that first one. UN REAL.
Lovely lovely lovely.
I wanted to say that before I read all the other comments.
I suspect I will simply be joining the chorus--but here goes anyway tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
Love love love love love this post, and those underwatercolors are the heart of art.
You capture exactly what I'm feeling.
Alive again!
These are outrageous! You are a true artist. I love how you see the world.

That first photo looks like a Zick watercolor--truly amazing.
