River of Ribbons
RIVER OF RIBBONS
River of jagged, ragged ribbons,
Pretty, patterned pixels,
of cold, steel, grey;
Feathering, fanning, as it
and the wind play.
Play with water; water time,
Play with water; water chime.
River of smooth, wide, shard of black,
Sleek and sombre, captor of light,
reflecting, resting, within,
its miracle sight.
Play with water; water time,
Play with water; water chime.
River of ripples, rolling ribbons,
Pretty, pitted points, of shadow and shade,
Moving, constant, round and down;
Mirror of Heron, Coot, and Buzzard invade.
Play with water; water time,
Play with water; water chime.
River of living, breathing, and life
Sleek pastures of silver and new;
Travelling, transforming,
from mist and dew;
Play with water; water time,
Play with water; water chime.
