Flowing forever (water nymph)

Your gracious form flickers
within the gentle streams of my soul
I attempt to touch your beauty,
reaching out only to see echoing rings
spreading out upon liquid perfection
separating two separate beings
A stream of illusion creating its own conclusion
You are not a creature to capture
but a being to behold within rapture
Only brief unobtainable glimpses
of perfection swimming before me
before swimming away from me
back to the sparkling gleams of
the stream like a dream....
