Circle of Life Date: Thursday, 2nd October 2003 @ 05:05:00 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: gee The stillness of the rushes in the early morning light awaits the kiss and caress of the cool winds across the water All life stands still to the rising of the sun save the ever-wary hungry fish which breaks the glassy plane Reflecting light on gleaming scales launched high above the wash catch a butterfly in flight as he claims his meaty prize Just as quick and out of sight as dust devils between the dunes the ripples in the water cede once more, life carries on This poem is Copyright © gee Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
