Redefining.
All life long it caught slaps
of rain on its watery back.
Now broadened the still lake
with its quiet surface reigns
over illusion while redefining
reality by its unruffled smile.
Washing troubles with depth
of compassion a pool reflects
methods which resist moody
depression and poise renews.
Water tranquility clears scum
from former petulant currents
thus retains a welcoming calm
by placidly sinking done harm
into liquid\'s impeccable weight
so effects changes in negation.
Lake\'s trove of fluid treasure
helps troubled souls re-settle.
