The Lotus, The Lilly Pad and the water

I walk
into
a garden
of lotus
flowers
growing
from the mud.
The Lilly pad
is huge.
I wonder
if I crawl
up in
it, would
it hold me?
I gently
crawl into it
and it holds me as
I drift
into the water.
Feeling the
ripple of water
under me
it calms me.
I put my hand
out to touch
the Lotus flower
it is yellow,
my favorite.
As I open my
eyes,
I am sitting on
my prayer
cushion.
Calming
and soothing
I am so happy
that in my
life,
I found
the Lotus
the Lilly pad
and the water.
It makes
everything
so much better.
