Winding River

Winding River

Sapphire streams carve the rusty clay
as whitewater storms against the rocks.
Trees topped with darkest green stretch
to a cobalt sky speckled with diamonds.

A gentle wind whispers quietly in my ear
peaceful solitude to wash away my worries.
Crimson and saffron flower sway without a care,
a gentle reminder of God’s masterpiece.

Cerulean ribbons twist and turn,
lapping at short evergreen blades.
An indigo sky littered with silver flakes
stretches until it meets its friend…

The winding river.
