Jaded
The pond's algae swirls artistically
around the lily pads,
captive oracle of the canoe's wake,
velveteen green of a finer weft
than the gown of a Queen's,
richer in hue than the paint
from Monet's pallet.
The innate beauty of nature,
most diminutive, thriving on earth,
in water and under the fire
of a setting sun.
