Duck Pond by a Peaceful Bridge

Duck pond by a peaceful bridge,

The water mirrored green,

The walkways slightly bending,

To the tranquil nature scene,

For are the ducks beholden,

To the water's mirrored gaze,

Or are they free to be themselves,

And go their separate ways?

For if the mirror does reflect,

The movements of just one,

Then how can any single duck,

Be free to roam and run?

When understand this message,

Does the one who roams the pond,

Then surely it will set you free,

To roam in worlds beyond.
