The water hyacinth <br />floats with flotsam and refuse <br />goes along so smooth <br /> <br />Surfs, ducks, bobs, to tide <br />sunk nearly drowned but not drowned <br />spin, rise, resolute <br /> <br />Down under with roots <br />marine mammals, fishes kiss <br />Their best sanctuary <br /> <br />With the symbiosis <br />I envy water hyacinth <br />Just the way they are <br /> <br />It just goes along <br />With the nature of water <br />Why not for friendship <br /> <br /> <br />Ency Bearis <br />(c) 2011<br /><br />Ency Bearis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/like-the-water-hyacinth/
