The Happy Feets

What separated us was a glass pane stretched from one end to another in that dark room.


I stood opposite what seemed to be like another world of their own.

As the secondhand on my watch went on moving, I stared at them in wonder.

"Dang! I wish I could swim like that!" 

The first exclamation my conscious mind said.

Fascinating was one word I could describe the moment.

"Are they....really happy?"

A question came to mind next.

The scenes of an animation movie 'Happy Feet' suddenly flashing as if I had watched it recently.

I mean, one would have felt restricted to be kept in an enclosure..right?

But the thought that they'll be well-fed and cared for...

 part of me hopes that that made them happy.
