ancient pond—
frog jumps in
sound of the water
Basho Matsuo
————————————————
Water has been my life source
Ponds have been my distractions
I have travelled widely on the back of water
Water gave me my trade, which I relied upon
Now water is here to give me calm
I listen to it flowing and cascading
I go to those places where water gifts beauty
Yet I am no wild swimmer
