In the pond

by JS Absher
​
the mountain​
is not a mountain ​
​
it is mountain with dragonfly​
with overhanging trees​
​
their leaves spotted yellow​
with early summer heat​
​
in the pond the mountain​
is a spotted leaf​
​
in the pond the mountain​
does not have a backside​
​
it is all there before us​
dragonfly and leaf ​
​
under the mountain the minnow ​
cannot see the mountain​
