Murkey Waters

The pond is clear.

It sparkles like a 

frozen diamond.

Hundreds of 

vibrant fish.

Painted in colors 

beyond the spectrum.

Years later

something has changed.

That  clear pond,

those sparkling diamonds,

those vibrant fish,

aren't so bright anymore.

That sparkle is dimming.

And frankly

I'm scared.

Years after that,

could you even tell

what had once been there?

Could you even tell

that hundreds of fish

are now dead?

Would anyone even remember

that sparkle?

This was really good! It symbolizes so much in life; how time changes things, how vibrant feelings die off and soon become a distant memory, how people tend to sometimes forget the beautiful things in life just because time wears them away. Your poem has a nice flow and the words fit perfectly. Great job!

Not only does this poem have great flow and great word usage, their a so many things that this poem could mean,
How things change over time.
How people dont notice these changes.
Or even how people cause things to change and then not care.
Nice piece thanks for sharing
