Pond Poem by Marty Thibodaux

Beautiful, serene, this pond
breathes of life,
for many are the creatures which
grace it's grassy shores.
Silence, tranquility, imparts
spiritual bliss, allowing the
soul to slow down, experience
the moment.
A dragonfly lands on
a nearby lily.
A beautiful blue color it is,
a specimen of fine ingenuity.
I stare into it's face,
large, dark eyes stare
back at me as if saying,
"Isn't this pond beautiful? "
