The Lilies Light Up

gray0328

 

A quiet glimmer on the water,  

Ghostly lanterns, they float away.  

With a tender flicker,  

They spell out the night’s message.

 

Whispering to the restless stream,  

To cease its endless tumble.  

From chaos, a silent pact forged,  

A symmetry born from cacophony.

 

In that fractured light,  

On the soft bones of the riverbank,  

Their winter garments lie in wait,  

For the embrace of warm waters nearby.
