The
stream,
flows
happily...
Gushing
and meandering
through the mountains and plains
passing the big stones,
jumping
onto the smaller ones
Spraying
and splashing
in day
it’s her shine
at night the sound
that
leaves all spellbound.
Uncaring
and unnerved by
even the roads built over her.
She flows
on
turning
from a waterfall
to a
stream to a waterfall again.
laughing
and moving ahead.
STOP her
and she turns,
taking a
new path!
Passing the fields
soothing
one and all
by her
magical gait.
Moves on
undeterred
till she
merges
happily
losing her identity
and
becoming one
with the river!
The
stream
like the spirit and the
soul
like a
carefree teenage girl
hops,
skips and jumps…
dancing
to the tunes
of time
till she
finds her abode!
The
stream,
flows happily!!
