Also "The Daydreamer". "Still waters" we think.
Are they deep, shock, dilemma, relief ?
Are they shallow, a comment, your custom, chance ?
You look into the pond today;
watch the gold and olive fish
as they swim and surface and dive.
Thought will glide and circle.
Feeling will splosh and splash.
Patterns discerned in ripples and waves.
Perception dives from the surface,
through crystal to black opal depths
.... grasping new insight resurfaced.
Dreamer or thinker, we see you reflective.
Dreamer or thinker, we seek your reflection.
*Written after seeing the painting Girl At A Window by Nicholaes Maes.
