Water and Light

21:53 Edit This 0 Comments »
This morning we had an early delivery truck with a heavy skid of stock. It had to be brought in through the front bay door comprised of glass panels. The locks were removed and the chain pulled to raise the door. Now the joy of having a pond inside the office is the high humidity that results. Picture the bay door rising, bending to curve along the ceiling and creating a small rain shower in the process as condensation drips off to the floor. Droplets almost flourese as the light flashes through them in their brief descent. So simple and so brief but the sight brought a smile to my face.
This afternoon the sun shone brightly through the front windows at the office and danced across the pond. Amidst the numerous phone calls and customers comming and going about their business the light was reflected off the rippling pond to dazzle and dance on the wall. Even Myrtle, perched on her rock, had crooked her head to keep an eye on these shifting shimmers. A fish would break the surface of the water and send these shimmers in new directions untill the water settled again.

Just a couple moments of peace in an otherwise hectic day.
