Sorrow of Lake (image source Google)







                   She  was    sitting ,  on  the  desk


                   in   the   garden ,  beside   the   lack




                 Which   was   silent ,    and   still


                 As   laid ,  after   taking   the  pill


                Sun    slipped   away , behind   the   hill
           
               Breez   was   trying    to   lake , chill


              with   her   tricks,  trying   to   tease 

             
              sprinkling   over ,   golden   leaves 


             By   creating ,  circles   around 


             within   trees ,   making   sounds


           But   in vain ,     her   all   tries 


           lake  produced ,no  move   or  voice


        calm   and   cool  ,  without   noise


      Like ,  before  fool  ,stand   the   wise


      She    was  looking   ,at   the   lake 


       web   of   silence   wanted   to   break


         in   which    stuck ,   were   so   many   gloom 


           Many    questions ,  secrets  ,   doom 

           Though    the   surface   was   soothing  and   calm 
         
           But  in   bottom   saw   lot ,  when   zoom


         She    got   up ,    and   came    near  


          with  a   smile   , giving    cheer 

       

        Asked   the  lack ,why  is   she  so  sad?

        Beautiful   evening    ,what   is   so  bad ?


       Lake   replied   ,with   deeply   sorrow

      For   me  same,    today  , tomorrow  


      I   am   stuck  , here     for   years 


        Gathering   only ,  sky's   tears  

      
           I   can't   move    ,i  cannot    flow  


          Cannot    groom ,  and    cannot    grow 




            Look   at   stream ,she  is  happy   and   sing


          How   much   joys   she   seems  to   bring 


       .
          She   smiled,   with   serene     face 


         And   spoke   with   wisdom   and   grace


         How    sad  ,your   thoughts   sound 


        Can't    you   feel,   the   blessings   around 


       and   how   great!  ,   that   you   gave  them  life 

        Realize   this  ,   and   feel   pride  
       

      You   are   source   ,  to   so  many    here  


       Self    pity  , is      totally     unfair  .


       Don't    feel   less,   than   flowing   stream  


       
        You   think  songs,   but  might   scream

        She   is    travelling    towards    the   sea  


        where   she   think  ,she  meant   to   be 


        But   each  time ,   thrown    back   aloud 

         
      in   the   shape  ,  of   desperate   cloud  


      Cloud   that   ,turn     it   into    snow   


      She   melt   down   ,again   began   to    flow 


        She   is   suffering   with   lack   of   love  

       Strangers   meet ,  with   every   curve .


    She   is   running   into   the   circle  


      And   you   are   beautiful   miracle 


           happened   to    beautiful   town  


        I   am   friend   , don't   feel   alone .





Dear   friends ,take  great  care ,love  you  all .

wishing you all  a happy  ,healthy  prosperous life .

  5. Lovely. Even though the lake thinks it is sitting still and accomplishing nothing it is the catalyst for all the life around it. And parts of it evaporate into the air. When enough of the drops get together they must again come to earth. They are absorbed into the soils where they gather with other drops which flow back into the lake. You captured it perfectly.

  7. This is a sweet poem about the lake, Baili. You know, I've always loved the lakes and rivers and streams and brooks. There is a peacefulness and calm that the waters bring, and I appreciate them very much. You keep writing your poetry, Baili. I love reading it. : )

  20. " And you are beautiful miracle " Very beautiful, this part! Congratulations!
    The way you write is engaging and engages the hearts of readers.
    A river that was so beautiful but that saw the negative side of its natural state. Until her friend showed her how much beauty there is around her.
    Your dream world has enchanted me so much.

    Many thanks for the words left on my blog.

    Tenha uma semana abençoada de paz, luz e alegria !

  28. Dear Baili - Nice emotion-telling in poetry. I like to be at the lakeside simply appreciating the stillness of the water and the surroundings. I also like to listen to the merry whispering of the flow of a river. On both occasion, I know how you become contemplative.
    Thank you for seeing my old post about glorious Nara in autumn. I look forward to those scenery at least one month ahead. Have happy days ahead.
