Green Sudsy Algae

Green sudsy algae floats upon the dimpled surface of the pond.
Fish scuttle across darting after one another hiding amongst the sudsy fog.
Larger fish watch in repose as they stand still as rocks with only a slight flick of their tails.
Leaves find their burial ground amongst on the surface.
The rocks slip into the water as if they are trying to avoid disturbances.
A waterfall splashes and sprays with a sweet sound so soothing.
White splashes of water fly from the still water and join the glass-like waterfall.
Tall green stalks with sun kissed tips shoot from the murky depths.
A tiny flowing stream mimics the powerful flow opposite it.
It glides so gracefully along the rocks that it seems to blend into the water.
Rocks shoot up and fence the little pond in, while a mature tree admires from afar.
Big waxy leaves hand like banana peels and brush the surface of the water.
They are merely dipping their feet instead of diving in.
A palm leans over the water as if to get a closer look at the energetic fish below.
The shadows of dimpling water dance along the sandy bottom.
Reflections of the rocks on the surface of the water look as if they are swimming
amongst the fish.
The water responds by climbing the rocks by reflecting itself against the rock’s surface.
The little bug-eyed fish keep their bulgy eyes on me as I write.
Slowing down for a second to admire my pen gliding across the paper and then returning
To their game of tag.
Lily pads grace the surface and make me think of the frogs that jump from one pad to
And croak with joy in the evenings.
Come with me to the pond sometime and sit amongst the rocks and watch the fish swish.
