Serenity As the river winds its way Down the tireless path And teardrops fall in Rememberance of past lives Calming wind claws at the fabric that is Our life and mountains push Past their strangled keep. Flowing Thoughts bring to light a Friendship and closeness as Dawn wraps her spidery web Over the ageless past. Fiery Explosions portray a new day as the Weather awakens a pure experience. But the lives linger as Lives tend to do. For we cannot Forget the past Lest our mistakes Cause pain in the present or Hurt in the future. The winding river pulses Towards the sea as the gentle Wind washes over me. And I slip evermore Into the life that is my Future.
Reason for writing:
The beauty of the Pecos River Valley in northern New Mexico caused pause for reflection. This poem is the result.
