Sun lashed at still water
Like a goddess brimming
With cold rage
Turned it silver in pain
Shivering and clinging to sand
Trying not to skid deeper
Not to lose it soul
Not to dry out to a salty patch
This little pond
Bore the callous flogging
Clutched its every breath
For all the lives
Watching it..Waiting..
To douse their thirst
