Streams

Hearing sounds of peacefulness,
harboring feelings deep within,
noticing the streams quiet presentation.
The water is a timid mouse one day,
and an angry tiger on other days.
The beauty of the streams uncertainty reflects life's mysteries.
Every thought you’re thinking is held captive,
as calming vibes radiate throughout your mind.
Serenity surrounds you and your new friends.
Fish jump here and there offering their greetings.
Herons hang out on nearby shores,
as the eagle takes flight once more.
With rocks still as can be,
I hear the whispers of the stream.
