About This Poem
Feathers in the Pond
``
~ "Flamingos in pink plumes, spread all that silken fluff; pink ripples in air."~
~
A moorhen gaily skips, light on its feet;
Landing on one lily pad, then to another.
Its bright red beak, a treat,
A beauty in black fur in the pond yonder.
Looks like she's walking on the water.
~
The egret has grace.
Amongst water cress it wades.
Snow white feathers on his back,
Hanging in a drape.
This beauteous form, frog stares;
Looks dazed, then it leaps away.
~
Willow droops to caress the water,
Calmly floats the mallard in mist.
