Tranquil





the flower
the shadows
of the flower's petals
the reflection
of the bottoms
of the flower's petals
the flat round leaf
holding the shadows
of the flower's petals
while floating
on the dark
glassed water
undisturbed
imperceptible
among thousands









Fragrant White Water Lily  ( Nymphaea odorata)

Photo Location:  

  Pickerel Lake Park, (Pickerel Lake Park) Kent County,  Michigan

    I love the reflection of this Water Lily, and the reflection/repetition of your words.

    Whoever you are, maybe you will see me shooting on the Pickerel Lake Loop someday. I go there often, in all seasons.

    Thanks for your thoughtful comments.

    You seem like a warm and caring woman with deep love for your Mom. May God bless you and her.

    Thank you. Don't you love those calm-water days for photography?

    There must be a verse that fits this photo.
