Mountain Fountain

Up the mountain
The forest hides a fountain
Escape the summer madness, 
In cool shade

Ice cold water
Glides through my fingers
Senses awake
A gushing melody Under Ottoman shapes

There's light on the surface
Even oppressors
Leave relics to impress us
This oasis of calmness sedates

Hello Johndinsky Official, so nice to meet you. Water is soothing for the soul whether it is a lake, ocean, stream,or in a pond,or waterfall. A water fountain is also soothing for the soul. Be safe. Enjoy your day. my friend.
