Where the River Bends

Mist rises high above the waterfalls splashes 
As the sun shines through the mist, 
Rainbow sunrays cover the mossy mountain slope 
Emerald and jade stones sparkle on the landscape 
From the pool a small shallow stream winds a path 
A lone white egret stands watching on the island

Beautiful writing from "the outdoorsman poet". The images bring back such delightful memories of hiking through the woods - the discovery of a waterfall, the sounds of streams rolling over the loose stones, the mists that fill the morning valleys, the birds and wildlife that go about their lives. Pure loveliness. Hope all is well with you ~ John
