Pond
Pond belongs to the following groups:
All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical and The Word Treea swirl of smoke
the turn of a card
light-hearted laughter
the silence of thought
strange scenes
in pipe dreams
the vista of the minds’ eye
we pay
in search of pleasure
in sweat and blood
we trade our souls
to earn our leisure
our all
for a day in the sun
ripples on the pond of life
we speed from birth
to our graves
between the splash
that starts us off
and the shore
that we reach in the end
we all may raise
our face to the sun
and be crests
on the rippling wave
