Ripples In the Water

The water begins calm
I think I saw a clam
It was hard to see
With ripples in the water

Profound thought -- do we really see what we think we do, or is much of what we see, think we know, mere ripples in a sea of personal consciousness? Excellent! This one I will go back to often. Blessings. You get a Fav!
