Drifting With the Current

the green river tumbles between step canyon walls rock faces broken with time's relentless stride softened with muted colors and small pockets of life nature finding purchase that will not be denied today it is my heart's desire to drift forever on the river to be at one with the canyon and the solitude I find carried by the current and lulled to peaceful ease A time of peace for a tired and restless mind.......
