A still pond is this...

By Geetanjali Lachke

 

A still pond is this which birthed a lily

Serene image of beauty, dressed in white

Which I wish to keep as a memory

But like those days when the moon shines so bright

That it resists being captured by lens

Like that, this lily looks away dismayed

She won't show her face nor bestow her grace

Not unless one learns what she has to say

Some memories don't need to be captured

They are imprinted on an earnest heart.
