emerge
ripples on the surface
scatter like a swarm,
shimmer like the fireworks
as they're taking form
wobbly bulge of water
summoning the waves,
rises in the center
and reveals a face.
from the lake emerges
gorgeous merwoman
shining, chin to shoulders,
bathing in the sun.
lips and cheeks in blossom
full of beaut and glee
radiate with freedom
and call out to me
Poetry is what is lost in translation.
Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
