Tranquil Pool

A once tranquil pool
starts to shudder in the winds
Distorting it's calm

Within the winds come
a blanket of soft blossoms
Hosted by nature

Cast upon the water
to create a kaleidoscope
of shapes and movements

As the pool grows calm
Movements become less frantic 
shapes do coalesce

Like the way you brought tranquility to this pool in the sequential haikus, Paula. Nice work! Love, carolyn
