Danube
My roads -
You follow them all.
Forcing me to go, to stand
In the face of my every fear,
Like your waters -
Deep and unclear.
I see you again, crossing my way,
Like a coming doubt.
The solution, I ask about.
Unknown you stay.
In my eye, I feel you anew.
Like a glittering jewel,
Pieces of light,
Tonight,
You tremble and shine.
Reflection of past, present alive.
Inkling of what
Will gonna be.
You leave me
Wondering:
Am I just going
Where
You
Cleared
The
Paths?
You follow them all.
Forcing me to go, to stand
In the face of my every fear,
Like your waters -
Deep and unclear.
I see you again, crossing my way,
Like a coming doubt.
The solution, I ask about.
Unknown you stay.
In my eye, I feel you anew.
Like a glittering jewel,
Pieces of light,
Tonight,
You tremble and shine.
Reflection of past, present alive.
Inkling of what
Will gonna be.
You leave me
Wondering:
Am I just going
Where
You
Cleared
The
Paths?

Author's Note
The oldest known roads were the rivers... This is deeply personal poem, because, this year, my progression and learning was closely bonded to the biggest European river - Danube, and it still continues to follow the roads of my life. It's so obvious, that makes me wonder, are we deeper linked to this big water flows...

I must have passed over the Danube in Germany on the way from Munich to Berlin. I live very close
to a river that was used by the Romans for trade. I love cities with rivers...Prague was beautiful standing
on the Charles bridge at night.
Insightful poem Selena.

I love them too... rivers and other waters are inexhaustible source of inspiration for me! You should see Danube in Serbia...you'd be fascinated by this king of European rivers. Here, many big towns on his shore, are located next to huge ancient cities made of stone.
Thank you for your review! You always make my day with your comments.

I've never been to Serbia...I've visited Porec in Croatia. A long time ago. Beautiful scenery there. Love to visit Budapest.
Budapest is very beautiful... River is there also very wide, and has many beautiful bridges. But in Belgrade, another big river joins the Danube, in the center of the city... If u ever come again to Balkans, just follow the Danube... and you will not regret...
