Meandering

Meandering stream of dreams,
That flows beside the old willow~
Where laughters of my childhood echo
Upon the river rocks of blue and yellow.

I throw a stone upon her bosom~
To see at least a tiny ripple,
Instead  I see lilies blossom,
In the meandering stream of dreams.

'Lilies blossoming in the meandering streams of dreams'.... It carves such beautiful images. A very soothing feel this poem gives like the gently flowing streams without even a ripple.
