Caressing the ripples
The soft
But steady flow
Of the river
As i glide along
Paddling
Through puddles

As dappled echoes
Of moonlight
Float along
The dark
And shimmering water
There is a silence
Amongst the shadows
Of the clouded
Flickering stars
Their brightness
Mere ghosts
Lost diamonds
Echoes
Of their own existence
Floating through infinity

And over the dark horizon
Of this blue velvet night
I sense the waters edge
Listening
To the ebb, and flow
Of small waves
Running ripples
Caress the soft sand
The glowing moonlight
Seduces
Then takes my soul
To madness
Now i see
