plop

 

“echoes of well-wishes”

imagine
a quiet and calm pond

then
plop

a stone falling
through its glassy surface

cast with good intentions,
well-wishes spreading with its ripples:
may you be happy

again
plop
may you be healthy

plop
may you be safe

plop, plop, plop, plop …

now adding your own
to the circling patterns

well-wishes rippling
out and inward, permeating all

may we be happy
may we be healthy
may we be safe
