The Pond Speaks - The Sonnet

The Pond Speaks

'They say even great rivers shall run dry
That every night, more stars appear to fall
But bright as crystals, they really just fly
Like droplets leaping from a waterfall'

I heard the pond whisper out through crackle
'The blue planets burn white like fireflies
All is illuminate, a spectacle
Though none but my eye waits watching, descries'

On it ran! 'Clouds are mirrors of the sea
And mountains are hollows we cut through air
Gusts, like eclipses, I shoot blindingly
For without me - no other would be there

Before people die their shadow is drawn
And before they die – they're already gone.'
