Water Lily
Transcendence in exactly fifty-words
Thank you to
at for the writing prompt, “transcendence”. See the examples of 50-word stories on this theme HEREOn a grassy bank, she bares her feet,
takes off her clothing, folds it neat.
She floats upon the mossy stream
and soon calls forth a waking dream.
She’s a waterlily! An open flower,
transcendent in this hidden bower.
Another sweet gift from The All-Abiding,
a blessing from The All-Providing.
Water lily a magnet that attracts the senses and her leaves hide the dream of hidden treasures in the depths of the stream .
Like some of the other readers, I don't DO water I can't see through... and even then there's major questions. Who knows what lurks below those leaves. Nope. Not for me. There is only one bathtub in my building and I moved out of that apartment. Big sigh of relief for stone shower.
