PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

As I gazed into  
large glowing eyes,
Clear as crystal,
shining like
diamonds.

I was caught off
guard,
My protective  
shield was down.

For a time, I was lost                                    
in their beauty.
Swallowed up in the
moment.

Opaque pools of water,                          
Inticed me,                                  
I wanted to wade in,

Feel splashing                                                
around my ankles.
Get wet, be taught
to swim in those
waters.
                                        
Know of all their
mysteries,
Learn everything
about them.
                                                      
Experience their energies,
Linger there awhile.

Become familiar with            
them.
We spoke in silence.

Not a word was uttered.
I understood, they
understood.

I had been caught  
in their clutch,

My guard is up now,
My shield has been
repaired,

Crystal Pools only
happen once in a
life time.
