Rivers of mountain and plain

Rushing down valley and gorge
Fresh from his snow topped mountains
Bearing gifts of berries and blossom
Green leaves and dark branchs

Shouting down the canyons
Leaping between the rocks
Echoing from the banks
Sweeping all before him
Eager for her embrace

His lover awaits him
Lanquid on the plain
Shimmering in the heat
Idle and slow moving
Listless and waiting.

She begins to move
Rising and parting
Eager for his entering
Mingling and mating

Two are one
Bringing new life
For village and farm

Very uplifting Mike..so full of hope and promise.
Well done!

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.
