All in time as time comes due
then all shall be revealed
and even those not too astute
will see what's been concealed

Even though perceptions bend
even the light of truth
still I pray your heart will mend
and all your wicked deeds undo.

Look well into the still of pond
to truly see your face
and should you see past your self
you'll see the water's grace...
For in this hole of soul fulfilled
is emptiness of heart's imbue
and every drop of water there
is a tear that fell for you.

Serenity~
For a moment - I looked at the title
and thought we were going on a fishing trip ...

And then I found this graceful, tender read.

Very lovely, hon.

The title was very well thought-out, and I did like the last few lines.  Very creative scene you displayed here.

i dig the depth and the images get me right *here*... i know just what this is like  
i enjoyed the rhythm on this one too... calm, serene, and pond-esque
