New Vistas
A pool of water
left behind by the rain
reflects the light from the
streetlamps
the thin veil which
shielded us
from unreality
is torn apart
For the moment
we'll view the water
near our fragile home
Dancers on thin ice
we'll glide for a while
before the freeze
sets in
This pool is too
shallow to swim in
as we watch the
reflected light
we begin a journet
to the new
and as yet unseen
