The Goldfish ©

The girl asks her mother about her little goldfish: why it was not moving? Her mother replied that it was asleep, and then the girl asks, why it does not close its eyes to sleep? Her mother replied that it was because it would watch over and take care of the girl's dreams while she slept.
The next day, tired, the mother removes the dead fish from the aquarium without the girl realized it. The night came, and with the little strength remained, the mother put the girl to sleep and begins to read a story - The book falls.
The girl looks at her mother, was static, nothing but her hair moved by the wind were moving, not even her eyes that kapt open. The girl lays down on her lap, closes her eyes and smiles candidly - The mother will take care of your dreams.
The mother's body falls lightly on the girl's body.
The two sleep and the goldfish will take care of your dreams.
