My greatest accomplishment
Was lower or higher than
A pebble or a soft whispered wind
Does my life impress ducks
I don’t think they see me
And all my struggles
They see grass, they see water
Not some wild tiny matter
They see beauty they feel peace
I am hungry and restless
My feet are pacing looking for meaning
While the ducks are swimming gently
On the sweet waves of cooling lake water
That loves them just like it loves me.
