Barbara Gorelick Poet Etheree

The Sound of the Stream

Stream
at night
sings softly
age old music
to quiet the cry
of  this day's little child
lost while the west wind  moans   
Restoring  calm from chaos          
Flowing to tomorrow's  promise     
Diluting the tears of  the day's song   
Bathing the soul with the waters of  hope
