Still, the Crystal River Dreams

Still, the Crystal River Dreams

 

It glistens in the moonlight,

Moving in its own speed.

Letting out a sigh,

It ever seeks.

 

Sparkling on the surface,

Yet, in turmoil beneath.

“What’s the purpose?”

The Crystal River dreams.

 

In the night

It stretches far,

Hoping to reach wide,

Just like the twinkling stars.

 

Pebbles thrown into its current,

As it babbles beneath their weight indeed.

Quite a force sent,

Still, the Crystal River dreams.

 

Though nothing seems to come its way,

And when finally it does--

It is taken away…

Still, the Crystal River dreams of love.

 

Moving ever slowly,

Somehow, it believes.

Inching forward in its own speed,

Still, the Crystal River dreams.

Beautiful and hopeful words dear Melinda.
