A Gurgling Brook

long tree limbs stretching over gurgling brook flowing minnows are dashing I sit on the bank observing nature’s beauty a calming moment

I really like this haiku combo, Bill. Nothing is so relaxing as a gurgling brook, especially if your chores are done and you have no pressing issues!
