Promise, Mother

Streaming Her lifeforce
I stood atop rocky banks
with a breeze to coax me in
wildflower smiles blush burgundy
yellows crave sympathy
and deer snort
unexpectedly surprised



Rocks hug the overflow
creating staircase falls
nestled in hills cradle
arteries spill into creeks
as leaves orange and green
canoe times passage
through natures by-way



Box turtles bask lazily
soaking golden
in outstretched plea
whispering archaic phrases
as hints to the everlast
could hold true
despite fast rushing waters
