The River bends and curves
Around the neighborhood.
It ripples and swiftly flows
Like a beautiful river should.
A pure white egret stands
On one foot, admiring the view.
It’s graceful long neck
Is like a song sung in cue.
Geese swim in the cold water,
Their wings lift, churning the air.
One glides behind the other.
Their flight is like a prayer.
New life appears on the trees
That grow close to the shore.
Tender leaves dance and sway
Down by the river’s roar.
Beauty lies all around me,
As the world falls apart.
Storms are on the horizon,
But hope remains in my heart.
