Beauty

Looking at the clearest water
clarity with a depth of person.
The longer I watch its beauty pure; 
I see what time has lanced.
The closer I travel with my road
I understand its epoch.
Looking at the clearest water
Its clarity has begun to muddle.
The longer I epoch
I see little of what once was.
