One hundred ripples I mark today <br />One hundred steps along my way <br /> <br />One hundred steps lead to the pond <br />One hundred trees there do surround <br /> <br />One hundred birds nesting among the trees <br />One hundred bees filling the air with these <br /> <br />One hundred bees buzzing about in the air <br />One hundred flowers are pollinating there <br /> <br />One hundred flowers provide the aromas sweet <br />For one hundred bouquets given to lovers as treat <br /> <br />One hundred lovers walk the winding pathway <br />One hundred times to find romance there each day <br /> <br />One hundred times they will reach to explore <br />One hundred pebbles found along the pond shore <br /> <br />One hundred pebbles carry wishes through the air <br />One hundred ripples on surface creating there <br /> <br />One hundred ripples then spreading out will begin <br />One hundred waves soon lapping at the shore again <br /> <br />One hundred waves providing the means for <br />One hundred more pebbles to reach the shore <br /> <br />One hundred pebbles scatter along the pathway <br />One hundred steps retraced at the end of the day <br /> <br />One hundred small steps... this latest poem was conceived to denote <br />One hundred little ripples... spreading from 100 poems I wrote<br /><br />Mary Havran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/one-hundred-ripples/
