Muted Pond

The artist of all creation has touched this tiny meadow.
His hand sweeping gently over His canvas-
Creating beauty that no man can possibly attain.
The pond a mirror of life in muted silhouettes and shadows is a
masterpiece of artistry.
An azure blue gray haze drifts silently, leaving touches of clear
misty webs of lace across this silent meadow.
The trees, their limbs splaying across the pond-
Have the look of lacey silhouettes in their regal splendor as the
sunset reflects their beauty on the quiet little pond.
A deer feeding peacefully near the water is another reflection of
the artist’s hand in His masterpiece of artistry.
As the sunset begins its descent into the library of the universe.
It reflects all its glorious beauty on this awe inspiring pond.
The colors of navy, black, shades of brilliant crimson, the palest
shades of rose and pink
are being cast upon this hidden pond of beauty.
Protecting this beautiful meadow are gigantic mountains.
They are towering high into the vast expanse
of the heavens and are reaching for the stars of the galaxy.
They are a reflection of the entity who is the master ofall
creativity, the master of all artistry.
