Before the Waters Rise
June 16, 2009
The river is low
And I am here
Sitting on a rock
Watching the shimmery fish
Swim round and round
Just me
All alone
Taking a look
Before the waters rise
The floods will come
Soon, very soon
But now is the best time
To look down
Into the clear water
And see
The life inside
