THE POND
The sun’s shines …the rain falls
All we can do is honor the stages of change
As if we were in a Shakespeare play
This pond reveals
That nothing is perfect or ideal
Everything we experience
Is seen through our subjective eyes
Move forward to capture your intimate moments
For words cannot express
The validity of what we share
And
By surrendering
To our kismet wonders
We truly have lived
In the mystery of life’s short stay.
