Driftwood in serene ponds

I would hear the calling of the birds, the swishing of the water, the smell of seaweed and
the feeling of just letting go.

The picture almost looks 3-D because the black looks as if it sinks into the picture while
the waves seem as if they're ready to come out from the picture.
Blanca Iris S.

I would hear the wind moving the water waves and the water falling down. I would also
hear rocks crumbling or the water rumbling into the rocks. I would smell the fresh water
and dirt.

I can hear the water. The air smells fresh. Everything has a grainy feeling. It's the
evening. The cool breeze is on my face and through my hair. And the sound of peace and
calmness surrounds me.
