The Busy Still Life

There's that pond again,
deep and capable it brims-
a life of ideas-
ringed in tall wispy grass-
it would look so nice in just
the right vase'-
a tall one though!
Lopsided imbalance would throw
the whole pleasing image askew,
and starting anew I would
have to ponder-
new grass, new vase',
a whole new pond?
With the slightest quiver and shimmer
the surface,
placid when things are well,
now trills
and with a hair of disturbance
the quell is no more;
gone now
as my fingers reach
for pen
or pencil
keyboard
or quill-
anything to tame this
furrow, to attain a pond
still.

| Man, if we could all have things our own way could you imagine ? it must truly be a headache for those whom continually try to shape as mold this or that ? Girl, just let myself float atop these tranquil trusted waves: don't need no vase nor, any puppets attached to someone's string poof, and there she blows up in smoke ~ Twinkle twinkle, little star * |

The search for a moment of pared-back clarity in the hectic humdrum. Beautifully expressive writing.
Cheers,
Mickey. |
