Ripples in the Pond

Folder: 
2003 Poetry

Life is like the ripples in a pond.

Where ever you touch,

your force moves outward.

Growing wider and wider over time.



Just like those tiny waves,

building in that circular pattern.

We all touch the pond of humanity,

thus sending out our ripples of life.



Touching someone, leaving our force,

which in turn is passed on and on.

Circling that point in our existence,

spreading into some others lives.

Again and again and again.



We must all be careful how we touch,

this wonderful pond in which we live.

For we never know the results,

of our ripples in the pond.
