Florida Nature

Out in the waters of old mem'ries New beauty to behold each friendly trip Paddle boating on the ole river. Set my eyes upon the rocks Upon which young lovers meet The wild grasses where boldness reveals And lonely rivers where we said goodbye. And as I paddle upon still waters Roaring with the unanswered questions On which we ponder daily The serenity of sweet nothings Whispered to one another Upon always listening ears For those who come to the river Its majesty divine Cannot help but be changed By nature's finest music The howl of the tress Mixed with the calm of it all The sweet melody Of lovers introduced Of the promise of something And the ole river I paddle upon Where the wild symphony continues to play only its finest (Inspired by Wild Symphony, March 14, 2015)
