A Poem on remembering

To Remember

Glassy stillness was over the surface.

So I dropped a pebble into the pond.
Bloop. Bloop. Bloop.
Bubbles.
Rhooo. Wooo. Rhooo. Wooo.
Shspeeer. Shspeeer.
Soft satin rolling onto the shores.

Then glass again.

Did I drop a pebble into the pond?
Was it bloop or blop, rhooo or wooo or wahhh to the bottom with bubbles?
Tish or shpeer against the shore?
Its only glass now.

I drop another pebble: only this time in my mind.
Blop. Blop. Blop.
Bubbles.
Rhaaa. Whaaa. Rhaaa. Whaaa.
Shush. Shush.
Soft satin rolling onto the shores.

Then glass again.
