Ripples

Sunday Poetry Escape

Ripples

When we think of ripples what comes to mind

is water moving in waves

peaceful and calm,

hypnotic crests and troughs.

Or sequential waves

sending messages

across rivers, ponds,

lochs and lakes

for curious minds to discover,

waves caused by a stone

thrown by an innocent lover

or a slight breeze

gently calling from noble trees.

Clear ripples of nature

for a stranger’s eyes to see,

moving, gentle waves

that flow and break free,

rising and falling, spread out wide,

reflecting back the world outside,

circles of life, a constant flow,

a reminder that everything will come and go.
