Ripples

I wrote during a rainstorm

Ripples

 

Ripples in the water.

How are they formed,

and why?

 

Ripples can be caused

by throwing rocks or,

by a gentle breeze.

 

Ripples are the after- effect,

of something that has,

happened before.

 

There are ripples in,

Time and Space,

and all around us.

 

Some are good.

Some are bad.

 

Some reflect the past.

Some reflect the present.

Some reflect the future.

 

But all have their own possibilities.

Okay, I'm going to be honest. When I first saw the title I thought it said 'N*****s'. It was a few moments later that I realized it was 'Ripples'. Anyway.....:o

I really like it. It's so straight forward. (in this case, I believe this to be a good thing) Somehow I found myself picturing everything as you described it, and at the end, I felt like the entire poem was echoing in my head.A very chilling effect. A good write. :)
