Sky Ocean Puddle

Sky Ocean Puddle

Oh, the joy of standing at the edge
of a puddle after the rain has passed,
and the sky is now a clear blue
with a haze of calmness
in the damp of the fresh air
................ and a surrounding feeling of peace.

And I look down at the puddle
with the reflection of that sky
beckoning me to step
into a deep ocean of stillness,
and lose myself
in the vastness of (my) imagination ...............

how wonderful to be able to step into that beautiful image Denys, to just be absorbed into the stillness and be peaceful...
beautiful my friend..

A dream of a view is a sky-ocean puddle and thank for the peep into its blessings dear Denys - - a lovely read.

The quietude and calm you evoke through this verse is amazing, Denys. I sometimes find myself lost in the moment while staring silently into puddles myself, sir, though I could never have conveyed it as gorgeously as you have here.

A lovely composition.

The reflection of the sky on water does seem to create a dreamy, other-wordly feeling. Very beautiful poem.

Reminds me of when the reflection of the hillsides appear on the waters of a lake, a painting twice loved! Nice writing.
