"Puddles"

When you look at puddles, at
The swampy areas of life,
Do you only see a dank, dark nasty bit of water
Where there might be snakes or other dastardly demons?
Or, (as you should,) do you see a pool filled with
Life and beauty!
A place where things are just
As Nature intended them to be?
~
Do you see
The reflections of the skies and clouds?
Or,
Do you cringe at the thought of getting a
Foot wet?
Fearful that you might ‘catch’
Something?
~
You know, if you sit and
Watch a pool of water in the wild,
You can learn a lot.
Patience, for one, you can learn to be still.
If you are quiet and still,
you may get to see some very
Miraculous, Natural and Enlightening
Occurrences
That should fill
You with wonder.
Life
Is wonderful; let it
Teach you.
Learn From It.
Learn To Be Still.

Great post pal, im gonna upvote this right away.

As mirror shows yourself in the mirror means if you smile then mirror will reflect your smile, if you cry and your anger. And water shows the whole aspect of nature, means, beauty of nature, beautiful sky, flying birds, underwater creatures, fishes and many more and water can teach you lot of lessons but you need quietness in your mind otherwise you cannot observe beautiful actions of nature. Thanks for sharing these natural lines and keepup the great work. Wishing you an great day. 🙂

Stay Blessed.
