River Whisper

Thought For The Day

The river whispers,

welcome,

as she moves 

downstream.

Orb webs glisten in the

morning light. 

Jewels of dew

adorn this quaint boudoir.

I can feel you here.

Perfect upright wings

of waiting baetis

preen for their 

wedding dance.

Breakfasting trout

dimple 

the stream

while an avian overture

resonates 

in the early 

air.
