The Moving Road

Oh, that moving road of water we know as the river, it can be a reflecting mirror where birds glide and feed; or swirling on polished rocks where frogs whistle, sing and trill, and ancient trees with roots like tentacles reach for a drink. Unheard, unseen, below the fish struggle just to survive. ___________________________________________ November 16, 2016 Poetry/Verse/The Moving Road Copyright Protected, ID 16-850-696-0 All Rights Reserved.

Poor fish, they are unseen. Working their magic in the dark. Congratulations, Kai

Many things depend on our ability to perceive. There are so many with limited vision. How nice that someone can take the trouble to try to enlighten. You are a bright and glowing auricle. If we could harness your wisdom we would be in a wonderful place. It's reserved for us who know where to look. Ok am so lucky to be shined upon. Many many thanks.
