CREEK WITH WATERFALL

 

I feel that my broken heart releases
all the tears like a rushing stream

I feel that this small creek reflects
one tragic loss or triumphant release of burden

The small haven under the weeping willow's arms
takes me far from life trials and tribulations

Nature is life. All the colors are found here
in this little creek, a small blip on the Earth's surface

I see my reflection in the water
and a tear falls

All the tears gather on the surface
and get carried away down the stream

It is so free flowing and light that it could not be weighed down
It is not overflowed by everyone's tears but it is a release

A release from life
Quiet and meditative

Its banks are constantly open and flowing
for any poor soul's feelings, broken heart, and inspirations.
