Kumudu

April 1, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is beautiful women.

Today’s poem is a name poem for a woman whose shy beauty is hard to notice.

I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Kumudu is a small white water flower:

Upon the pond's black sea, one twinkling star.

Most will never notice her perfection,

Unremarkable for her protection,

Delicate as single dewdrops are,

Untouched across the stillness of their hour.
