Bathed In Hope



swans
wiggle
on ponds blue
tracing deep curves
like silken maidens
figure skating
life’s new maze
bathed in 
hope

Wow how beautiful this one is! I like this one a lot due to its "bathed in hope" lines, very ingenious Nette! I love your write very much my friend! I really enjoyed this poem that I have read this afternoon! I believe you really enjoy the water too, as I do? I don't live too far from a Great Lake(Lake Erie) and I visit whenever I can! I have relatives that live off the lake, very convenient! I think of this poem as being on a great lake swans swim and maidens skate! I love your poem! Great Work

Now I like this very much! My grandmother had some swans on a farm lake. As a boy, I was enchanted by its gracefullness and beauty. Thanks for the poem.
