I watch intently as the water laps at the river's edge
Somehow expecting the gentle almost rythmical
Movement to transform the sounds into a coherent whisper
Of revelation. Yet hearing nothing besides
My breath and the sounds of nature disregarding my
Intrusion. Or welcoming my presence.
I slowly unravel my folded arms, unclench my fist
And am pleasantly surprised at the touch of the gently
Flowing icy water. Sending shockwaves
Through my mind and awakening my senses.
Now I hear that whisper, as the sounds merge into
One voice,
With you as its core, and your heartbeat as punctuation
Astounded at the serene beauty of this moment
I lean back, sharing your warmth, and forget to remember
The words, yet store the spirit deep within.
