My reflection in the moonlit pond The owls are watching The bullfrogs, the loons The trees, the mountains, the stars I hear what they say How insignificant we are 3/29/19 'Writing Challenge 6, March 2019 - 6 Line Poetry Contest' Sponsored by: Dear Heart

I just had to come and mark this a FAVE, as I want to return to it again and again, to keep myself grounded. Thank you for this profoundly moving and meaningful poem, Tim. Best wishes, Gershon

A nice touch on this one, Tim... The vastness of Nature surely juxtaposes with our puny insignificance. I am reminded of it whenever I go deep into a forest or to the shores of a large body of water... ~ gw
