Random Thoughts #4: Water
Something I wrote a while back. Thought I'll post it.
Delicate
Fragile
As a small rose petal caresses it
Breaking the calm exterior
Walking on it
Dancing on it
Twirling its overturned edges
Like a dress
Fluent
Mesmerizing
As the mirror reflects its every move
Its every chant
Its every breath
And it shows the living
And the dead
As summer turns into autumn
Dead leaves tipping toeing on its surface
Red
Brown
Green
Yellow
They all join the chant
The dance
Of the twirling of the rose petal
In calm waters that smile upon its living
And dead
For it loves
And does not hate
Calming waters
Blue as the sky above it
The stage of the beating
The chants
And the breathing
Until the wind passes by
And the living and dead fly away
Leaving the calming water
Reflecting the world
In shattered shards
Of broken and unwanted truth
