Stream

If you create a riverbed        

Called trail

 

Wait long enough

Water arrives

 

Trail transforms into stream

 

 

 

 

 

Bubbling

 

Bubbling

 

 

Bubbling

Air saturated with moisture      

Thick Pacific raindrops

Hammer winter’s tattered canopy

   Drops build on each leaf

 

Waiting

 

 

Waiting

 

For the tipping point

 

Swept along   

This woodland watercourse

Flows freely

But not deeply

    I puddleponder

   Think of the relationship

   Between trees

       Earth

              Water

                      Air

Sunk in thought   

Once again

Words well up

With each reflection
