The crisp blue waters of a river up north
The sky is a much less modest
continuation of the crisp blue waters.
Silently moving,
dodging sharp rocks
and little fresh water animals.
A hot red ball of fire causes the crisp blue waters to
gravitate.
The little droplets cease to rise
and fall lightly upon my sun burned
shoulders
and dark freckled face.
At Ease.
