Pond

 


Think of me as a pond.

A day leaps up like a fish
and flops back down. Emotions
ripple out to the edge
and settle smooth .
Within each day, moments of ruffle,
moments of calm. Space to be plumbed,
space to be inscrutable. Plenty of time
for reflection, plenty of depth
borrowed from the sky.
