Day Dreams



she stands
beside
the quiet pond

holds a lily-pad
in her hand
that hides
her face
from
the sun

her mind is as far as
the distant hill
and she dreams amid floating clouds

rivulets flow down her cheeks
she closes her eyes
in silent prayer

all day long

the moonlight in her eyes
the sun in its hiatus
the skewed mind
dancing with the clouds
raining their drops

on her

phantom world
