In My Own Little World
The jade blades spike out of the soil like spokes on a wheel maneuvering through cluttered waves
The lapping of the water is a giant slapping his leg to the beat of a drum
A swan leads its young like a schoolchild playing follow the leader
The sky is a blanket of somber blue like a violin harmonizing a tune
The clouds float across heaven like angels in long dresses
A fish shimmies through the water as graceful as a ballerina spinning on her toes
The water is calm and peaceful like a baby bird learning to fly; flapping its wings for the very first time
The sun begins to rise awakening the rest of the world like a rooster’s first crow interrupting a beautiful dream
A moment I will not soon forget in my own little world
