“BEAUTY OF A RIVER” by Bill Charles ~~~~ I stand before this elegant river, calm I feel, yet with its strength… Mirror of glass reflections I see, through the valley, along its length… Mountains grow majestic from it, the water nurses them higher still… As far as I can look at the flow, my spine is with spontaneous chill… Pleasing to the eyes when I gaze, aware of its solitude, as I stare… Beauty of a river winding through, entering my soul, becoming aware… ~~~~ |

I love your metaphoric use of the river here, Bill... Rivers sometimes rage, but other times can be so calm. I'm glad that you found the calm time and turned it into a beautiful poem.  ~ hugs from chipmunk in need of some calmLyra |
