Your Glancing Hand
your glancing hand
ripples my soul
between breaths where
centuries of seconds pass,
as I wait for the waters
of my soul to calm,
so as to see your
mirrored reflection.
your glancing hand
dances like water-skippers
on the surface of my soul,
causing the minnows
to scatter under the reflection,
reflection of the willow branches
as the flickering sunlight
checkerboards waters deep.

Those ripples can be exquisite if made with just the right pressure and persistence. Nice poem, I like the watery vibe and the metaphors employed.
