at riverfront...sea out of reach.

I'd wallow with fun, laugh, and screech!

Near one hundred acres of mountainside trees

Down at the...

watching him riding off to war

Premium Member Canoeing On the Current River
Our riverbank launch at dawn
where dense forest chills the breeze,
where cottonwood leaves flutter like wings,
and weeping willow penumbras tease.

Glistening, rippling turquoise water churns.
Crystal swirling pools...

As the sandbar ebbed closer to the shore
Allowing family, friends to wander the depths without 
Fear of the unknown,...

Upon a translucent lamp lit orb eve,
magical butterflies I did perceive.
I watched them flit without a care,
glistening specters dancing on air.

Your heart was a candle sat on a cottage table kitchen

Joy of trees
Trees on sandbar
Dance in...

Wreathed within her locks

Cradled behind her ear
And left to her face
Crowning her temple
Full-blown in that vase
Flowered...
