The sun is setting, it is late summer afternoon, <br />The sky is filled with vibrant colors, <br />The dawn is setting over the pond, <br />the water is glittering like gold in the pond. <br /> <br />Sometimes the wind makes ripple over the water, <br />sometimes thousand suns reflect from the rippled pond, <br />sometimes concentric circular waves emerge, <br />sometimes memories seem emanating from the pond. <br /> <br />The shadows are getting longer and longer, <br />the reflections break into pieces and reunite again and again, <br />The memories of our long years together, <br />seem to perpetuate in the ebb tides of the golden pond. <br /> <br />How many times we sat on the shores, adoring the beautiful sight, <br />How many times we held hand, promising to love each other forever, <br />How many times, the trees swayed and birds flew around adoring our close embrace, <br />How many times, the pond smiled and wished, time would freeze and love would reign forever.<br /><br />Jay P Narain<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-golden-pond/
