Mystic Poem


Morning light filters through dew laden leaves.
Giving forth a haunting spectre amongst the rising mist from a mystic pond.

Moving gracefully between shadow and light,
a mirage of floating grey ghosts rise from the placid waters to the
languid branches spread above.

A distant  maniacal laugh of a Kookaburra, a cacophony,
breaking into the dawn silence, gives life to a backdrop of a misty hue.
Bringing forth life to a new born day.

Insects walk on water, as small bubbles emanate from the murky depths below,
popping with a minute echo, their tiny footprints encircled by watery tension,

Aquatic creatures watch the silhouettes dance on the surface,
creating the shimmering face of the sky above, smiling down at the morning pursuits.

Hyacinths float on their verdant green pads ready to display their myriad of exotic colours,
breaking open the greyness of the days awakening.

A ripple breaks as the dew drops  from  leaves fastened to a gnarled branch above,
its limb mirrored in a broken reflection of a wobbly tree.

Its banks afford a place to sit, to watch with wonder at nature's early morning show,
my eyes in awe as I behold this Mystic Pond
