Sometimes, I end up seeing a message too....

It takes all kinds,and all shapes;
and to coexist,
you can't just
"reflect"
on yourself.
Mangrovy ones,
weighted
with the worries
of age,
spread thin
across the middle...
Sparse Bamboo style,
thin branches
finding their way
carrying
inquisitive
pointy leaves
Regular
lushly foliated,
40-is-the-new-20,
mango and jamun,
in anticipation
of new fruit,
bending
from a bit of
safe distance
....
And some really
indisciplined
long ,
green
young blades,
rabble rousing
pushing each other
into the water.....
They enjoy together,
because,
unable to
selfishly
"reflect"
on themselves,
they can only see each other
when they look into the water....
