River of Ink
like an ink tinted river flow
through deep pulsing veins
simple words move along a strong current
it carries life along
to follow the stream
around sharp rocks, smooth boulders and stones
over outcropping of wood, log and tree
winding through so gracefully
thoughts to explore
like the rush does the shore
emotions splash against each new obstacle
bovines drink
raccoons diligently wash their treats
little creatures like the squirrel and fox
rest and refresh in the course of my words
worlds drawn upon the page
gliding the mind
in a river of ink
