The quiet pool

pale blue silk rippling gently
a mirror reflecting the clouds
hiding the depths down below
all drifting behind a shroud

lapping against the land`s edge
an almost silent slash is heard
increasing circles across the water
this moving fluid that's stirred

as the sun brushes the surface
leaving patterns for me to see
with the shadows moving slowly
creating such tranquillity


Love to sit quietly by a pool amongst the trees
