I sat motionless
at the periphery of the river
gathering my thoughts
flowing
then applied to paper
pretending to be a giver
of written words
laced with humor and wisdom
as the sound of nature
kept pace with my heart.
I imagined how peaceful
life can be
released a long sigh
of relief
as conjured up words
fell into place
like rocks along the bank and floor
thankful to rest a spell like I
after listening to an orchestral score
of birds.
May you hear the same sound
be it in nature or town.
