My water lilies
you are so beautiful that i see
so fragrant and so sweet
there is no other thing that can compete
you are the very spirit i will forever keep
My water lilies
you are all my old memories
and my futurre dreams
so fragrant and so sweet
i love you gentle and your tenderness
so many pink flowers and green leaves
and the clear blue water underneath
the wind and the cloud are all asleep
and only my love my water lilies
A very nice simple and sweet ode to something close to your heart. Most writers seem to over-do odes to something they love with superflourus words and sweeping stanzas, yours is just very simple to the point that we understand how you feel. I also like how the only thing capitalized in the poem is "My water lilies."
The Moments of Dominion
That happen on the Soul
And leave it with a Discontent
Too exquisite — to tell —
-Emily Dickinson

I like the poemOriginally Posted by peter7805
“Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature””
“If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.
