Nette Onclaud Poet Couplet

Sketches of Dew

The lake is a plate of evening blue 
Here where mists of dew sprinkle the view 
Under lilting skies the undulating sea 
Stretches far beyond infinity 
Silent and calm, no hint of green 
Smooth as silk with translucent sheen 


Rippling blue as far as fingers can see 
Yet when the moon’s luminosity 
Fondles  the surface where the wavelets flow 
Twinkling jewels  are dew-pearls’ glow 
To easels of moonbeams on a crystal sea 
How incredibly beautiful this vignette can be...
