![]() The Tiber *** Placid River *** I stand mesmerized by the placid flow of your essence. Your soft murmur leaps into my heart slowing the cadence of my life. You show me the constant motion of all of creation. And though together we race through space, I only feel a tiny shift of air. It’s the sweep of time in which we dance. My soul glides into your tune and you carry me to faraway shores, while I stand enthralled, motionless yet soaring high, becoming at once the observer and the observed. Lost in contemplation of You, my placid river, I AM. *** Love, Margherita |

"My soul glides into your tune and you carry me to faraway shores, while I stand enthralled, motionless yet soaring high, becoming at once the observer and the observed. Lost in contemplation of You, my placid river, I AM." Margherita, this was better than a Calgon bath ... taking me away to the land of tranquility. I always enjoy the beauty and spirituality of your poetry. Thanks for sharing this moment of peace. ![]() |

Thank you all my dear poet friends for your loving comments. Huan dear, I don't THINK of Rome, I BREATHE it. This poem was inspired by a picture my son took from the bank of the Tiber. It would have been nice to post HIS photograph, but it is not linked to internet, so I found a substitution which is quite similar. Love and have all a wonderful Sunday. Margherita ![]() |
