~ The Trail of Discovery ~

The Trail of Discovery

 

View the stream

All straight and crooked

A hidden energy seemingly pulling

At a speed just barely visible

 

Discover the air about

Fluidly as it pushes

Against a soothing surface

 

Find the tangle of small willows

With leaning reflections

And there too the stones

Ahead on the bank

 

Slight movements

Gently mirror the way

Where water meets air

Within the climate of the calm

 

See the swallows

Skimming along the water's surface

Twisting their narrow wings to rise

Without a thought nor surprise

 

All these and more

Encompassed with robust depths

From within and be more

 

Within find One

All encompassed without surprise

For there lays the foundation

Of true discovery

    We all have that trail of discovery Mel and within life it all has a way of unfolding. As yours did today in a miraculous way.

    yes I agree everything should be within ease in the writers scope allowing the free flowing thoughts to come forth and create inspiring and moving poetry that fills and lifts one's mind to new levels.
