Blog Entry No. 5
Once upon a time there was a feather small and fine, floating on the water of a pond. “I am so light,” said he, “oh te ha he, my density is low degree, lower than the water which lies under me. That is why I can float so free.” Along swims a big, fat catfish, fins swish swishing in the pond. He falls upon the floating feather, wondering how it stayed on top the water, and swam to ask it how it did it, this single floating feather. “Hello,” said the feather to the catfish. “How might you do today?” “Just fine,” said the catfish, “but I have one wish.” “And what shall this one wish be,” asked the feather. The catfish said, “my wish is to know how a single feather small and slow, can stay on the surface while I fall below.” “Well,” said the feather, “te ha he, my density is low degree, lower than the water which lies beneath me.” “As for you, unfortunately, your density is of high degree, higher than the water in which you swim free.” “If the density is higher than you can be, you float on top, fancy free. If the density is lower than you can be, you reside below, and swim so free.” That is density!
