The ducks
Gliding on in
Touching the lake wings spread
To hung the breeze
Lose flight.

Gliding now on water to shoreline of grasses,
Where sleeping in sunlight brown puppy rolls over,
White step stones for walking with boarder of flowers
The kitty lays waiting now crouching in clover,

Paddle
Quickly serene
To birch woods cool shadow
Over shallows
Floating

The kitty now wanders still seeking adventure,
Brown puppy in waking sees the flock that’s drifting
Jumps into the water now swimming as wings spread
Left below in the lake they’re skyward up lifting.

The ducks
Away flying
Hawk higher in the sun
Comes diving down
Capture

The kitty now dozing in branches of old oak
Is yawning at puppy that’s barking just below
Till pretty butterfly flitters by distracting,
It’s lively not sleepy so away he will go.

On wings
The duck fly west
And the sun goes along
The hawk feasting
In stones.

Much later the puppy comes bouncing to the tree
And finding the kitty still sleeping contently
So barking he’s telling adventures now complete
Kitty yawns and stretches then climbs high in the tree.

Gloom

sometimes you gotta hit them with a 2 x 4 to wake them up...remember always....sometimes people need proof...especially after some rough sailing...actions speak louder then words...and perhaps in this case words are needed directly to the core of the issues at hand.  Beautiful write, creative and thoughtprovokingly beautiful.  Thank you for sharing.
