By the Flowing Stream

A quiet moment by the water.

Sitting by the flowing stream,

my hands beneath my chin and a smile upon my face,

the sound of moving water entertains me,

its quiet whispers speaking words I cannot quite hear.

Beside me, the trees stand tall and still,

their branches swaying gently in the breeze,

as though they too are listening

to the stream's endless song.

For a moment, worries drift away,

leaving only peace behind.

Thank you for spending a few quiet moments by the stream with me.
