brook



the churning water flowing
music like lyric
with stones round and smooth
and sharp and dirt,
trees fallen dried
sun patiently waiting to set
when the hour wanes
a friend warm and quiet words,
life teaming and the early spring
heat beckons to awaken a summer
trance as spider webs glisten across
the brook's edge and all the while
my inner world lost in a current that
longs for a distant shore and another
wind to speak a sign or omen of what
might come on the morrow, what might
it bring, this wish, this day,
this dream,
