Water Lilies by Neetu

Water Lilies

wetting my feet
in the old pond

I pause           to remember
how it felt
back when the feet
were young and free

but memories wrinkle
and my skin is worn and coarse
to feel the same things

the water in this pond
too murky
to bring back
the clarity of fresh water lilies
and unclouded hopes
