As I sit on the bank <br />just thinking, <br />and look into the rippling water, <br />I listen to nature, <br />speaking calming words <br />of wisdom and age. <br />She sounds like the symphony <br />that is my beloved's voice. <br />Love fills me to the core. <br />As I take on last glance <br />and see all the colors of the rainbow <br />I feel at peace for the first time.<br /><br />Felicity Slaughter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-water-lily-pond/
