When I think of all the tears and turbulence life has given me, it sometimes makes me hard for me to forgive this world
I usually would find peace in the solitude and my waters would be still. I'd honestly prefer that than to feel alone amidst this sea of life
But now, I've learned to dance with the naiads by the Springs of Many Lives. With her hand in mind, the life-stream strums and begins to form rings
Each ripple made is a bond that grows stronger in time Each one beaming with many hues
Now I see, the true beauty of life. The waters will run hot, cold and warm. We all will dance different dances.
But the Naiads show me the beautiful bonds I have made with my fellow Kings and Queens on HP from all walks of life who wear their crowns with pride.
That is a life I yearn for.
For my diadem to be made of pure starlight.
For me to have such understanding makes me shed true tears of joy.
I'm back! And I'm not feeling as stressed as usual so I'll be able to finally share my work! My course has been crazy! A lot has happened today. Today we were supposed to pick someone from the whole group and pay them a compliment on what they're great at - and surprisingly, people did pick me (I got like 2 or 3 compliments regarding my bubbly energy and passion as well as my knowledge!) I'm still flattered and surprised, so it meant alot to hear that.
This poem is inspired by Sue's 'Naiads poem! ^-^ Got more coming along the way! Thanks so much, everyone! Lyn ***
