The river flows in the afternoon sun

Through the hidden forest fancy free

Without a care she sings her song

Living waters, content, to just be

 

Where the river flows through silent veils

In the sheltered forest her spirits rise

On hidden waters and forgotten trails

Beneath the shade of sacred skies

 

Morning echoes across the lake

Sounds of songbirds her woodland chimes

Shadows surrender the forest awakes

And weaves her timeless tranquil rhymes

 

Sitting in the silence

Beneath the wisdom tree

A sanctuary in the shade

Sheltered peaceful free

 

A quiet walk among the trees

Between the shadows a welcome sight

Of silent fields and summer breeze

In the forest deep of dancing light

 

It’s sundown in the forest

The earth beholds the day

Greets the night in fading light

No illusions to betray

 

In the sacred hour

The earth she speaks no lies

Beside the fire we hear the choir

Under the ember skies

 

The breath of deep pause

On the river of peaceful rhyme

A gift of wisdom from the earth

Reflections of sweet sublime

 

All is quiet on whisper lake

As moonbeams rise in fading light

Between the shadows spirits awake

Upon the journey into the night
