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
