One Heron twice seen

Writer: coreythecollinscoreythecollins



Once, a heron cut the lake in two,

it’s reflection below with both in view

on a mirrored lake that softly sighs and lies

just beneath the gaze of the watchers eyes.


The lake itself is a quiet dream and stares back

at itself because it to wants to be seen beyond

it’s ripples framed by the reflection a skew

of a world observed yet watching too.


The heron peers, but you cannot divide the living bird from its water-side

as if the lake, in all its grace

knows its own beauty in this mirrored space.


The watcher, too, became the seen,

a different side of this liquid dream where

bird and lake and sight entwine each held moment beyond the line.


Once one heron twice, one moment shown as the lake beholds itself alone,

a beautiful truth and a secret shared between the lake and the herons stare.
