Pond of Truth

Paddling over lies 

In search of truth's pond to find

My oars were broken!

Well, that is what all Haiku is about: to have a twist. Isn't it? Thank you so much, dear Nette!

Excellence write sir, I believe lie is like a horse and can run up a mile within a minute but truth is a snail. No matter how fast lie can run his bones would soon weary and snail without a bone she would meet him on his posture. Powerful well constructed. Wise one...........A.M.
