I AM A WATER LILY

When blue skies kiss whisper and ***** ripples quiver...

I drink on sun rays and bathe from falling rain,
I stand there afloat: graceful and reserve.
From pink petals shimmer,  I flush also a moonlit snow,
honeyed aroma I puff and puff chasing wind...

Weeping willow creeping there
Amber light from melodic moon
Take a fuchsia flower for hair
Emerald embrace as love bloom
Romantic rose petals on blanket
Laid so beautifully 
Indigo kiss touches silver soul passion strategically 
Like lily floating in the lake
Your love does the same to me

The Water Lily
She rises from the murky
Depths of the pond;
Unsullied and undiscouraged.

The frog hops on her bosom.
The fish steals a kiss from her cheek.
The rain throws droplets on her

The withered leaves fall on her.
Her quietude is so strong
The pond sits in silence.

I am a water Lily,
my petals are quite frilly.

I thrive on abundant waters,
the flowing streams, my AORTAS.

Great beauty in flowing scene,
planted in life’s flowing stream.

My nectar is quite neat,
my honey dew is sweet.

It is in April and May,
broad leaves on water I lay.

When I prepare...

Water Lily
You captivate me for the very first time
An outstanding beauty that truly outshines.
Sparkling glitters while sun rages high!
Never seen an enchantment that takes me so high.

You float in the water without wearing any fear.
But I’m drowning to joy when I see you too clear.
Will you...

Water Lily Ballet
Fish swim closer,
To the lily girl,
Who dances on her flower,
They watch her twirl,
She touches the water,
With her toes,
Where the ripples go,
Nobody knows,
Music in air,
She fights off the fog,
That begs her to sit,
Like a bump on a log,
It slows her small fish,
And makes them all groggy,
Then...

Premium Member A Water Lily In My Pond
Amid globular, floating serrated leaves
Dwells a dreamy lily in milk white frock
She is the new occupant of my small pond
Fructified by swimming fish and croaking frog


Like a nymph over the water’s still surface
She smiles and sways in unusual grace, 
With the regal flourish of a...

Premium Member Water Lily Mermaid
She lives among the vibrant water lilies,
She lives in the clear, freshwater pond,
She loves to tend her flower bed of peace,
As sunbursts tend the gardens of beyond!

She revels in warm, rife saffron sunshine,
Relishing the finest of two exotic worlds,
Like canaries plunge, upon grapes to dine,
In...

Everglades Water Lily
You are a water lily in a wetland,
The scholars surround you,
They did not expect to find beauty,
In a place like this,
Where did you come from?
With your eyes greyer than glass,
And your mind like the sun,
You cast your spell,
Without even lifting one of your lovely fingers,
Nor...

Floating magical fairy upon a water lily,
Blessing all of the living beings deep within a pond,
Casting spells of rejuvenation with flickerings of her wand....

Strangled Star
Sounds of burning water lilies
Disorient the future contours,
A shivery breath fills
My cheery corner.


The blazing shadow of the sun crushes
The sphinx of my star,
And the promises dissolve
Before the strangled star....
