It was a wonderfully quiet day at the art gallery. Paintings that were hundreds of years old lined the walls for all to enjoy. It was a wonderfully quiet day until . . .

"What was that?"
"Was that you?"

"It's a goose!"
"We need to catch it."
"Hurry before he gets away."
HONK! HONK! HONK!
The group ran, but the goose was off and away, before anyone could even snag a feather.

HONK! HONK! HONK! HONK!
He was staring up at a beautiful painting of a pond, flapping his wings and honking!
"He likes the artwork!"
"He has good taste in paintings."
"Maybe we should leave him be."
And the group tiptoed away, leaving the goose to enjoy the gallery in peace. Art should be enjoyed by all, no matter how loud they honk.
