Puddle Pictures

one year creeps by
every day passing near
a corner painting a picture.

to the common man purely invisible
to the blinding blue eye,
to the photographer, simply unmistakable

glassy smooth top it sits
muddy junk sinks to the bottom
a tree resides on the surface

one shot captures a new world
each one telling a different story
some of tall trees, others fields of yellow daisies

the rain created murals
lazily waiting for a colorful boot
splish splashing it's way down the street

those still pictures once calm
now reduced to far apart droplets
waiting to rejoin again

a puddle sits on that corner
everyday calling me to take its glassy photo
of the trees reflection resting on the surface

    Wow, this piece is so effective and unique... very refreshing! You wrote it greatly and created superb imagery through whole poem with excellent choice of words and flawless descriptions. Whole piece has great atmosphere.
    My favorite stanza is:

    -the rain created murals
    lazily waiting for a colorful boot
    splish splashing it's way down the street-
