Whispers the Wild Water

The eagle soared beside the morning
               Hearing river song rising
                    Whispers to the wild waters forming

          Answered in misty echoes
               Floating upon the rivers winding breath
                    Cascading in tumultuous cries

          Over itself in the waterfalls descent
               The whispering call spilled in crescendo
                    As the wild water tumbles

          To return to gentle undulations
               Winding over strong hands of stone
                    Bird song singing harmony

          The whispers of the wild water roar
               Now but the rivers sleepy stir of memories
                     Dreams calling in the night
