A Lily on a Lake

I swim at times,
oftentimes i find myself in treacherous waters
and if not, in white waters of pedestrian 
opaqueness.
when this happens, i climb up on to my favorite lilypad
there, i find a pure talent and zest
there seems to be a graceful alabaster glow
on this small island in the lagoon.
this gracious aqueaflora allows me to rest on her leaves
and we exchange secrets over the ripple of the waves
i would have long drowned in the tar
and lost myself, 
if not for this lovely being.
intelligence and creativity
are merely one
oh her world's worth of talents.

i am grateful that she exists
for i truly feel that i am i. 
and i like i. 
thank you
