Marsh lands badlands <br />Where life won't grow <br />Just miles and miles of <br />Emptiness to show <br /> <br />I am a denizen <br />Of one such wonderland <br />For I am a water lily <br />Try catch me, if you can <br /> <br />I grow and thrive <br />In such marshy miles <br />The closer you come <br />The further I glide <br /> <br />All by myself <br />I explore all the shores <br />I bloom in the moonshine <br />Sun is too harsh <br />For me to be lured<br /><br />Nalini Jyotsana Chaturvedi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nalini-the-water-lily/
