The creek ripples
Sunset light shining over its surface
Ilumanating the clouds to the west of me
Pink, orange, yellow
The last of the white clouds form a wing
The wing of a free bird
Wild, uncaged
Unstoppable
Beneath the water
Down the river
Lives a mermaid
Her hair curls into ringlets making waves with every ripple
Like she is the ocean itself
She could wash her problems away with a flick of her rist
She has it all
Hurricanes, cyclones
Power
In the earth beneath my feet is the hair
It digs out homes for itself in the soft earth
The quiet is where he find his peace
Underground with his family
Settled
Safe
Content
There's the tree nymph who prides herself on mystery
She's connected to every little leaf on her tree
Every root
Every branch
Every gust of wind
She never knows which leaf will fall and take her on a new amazing adventure
She never knows what's ahead and that's how she likes it
She confident that every day is a new day
Which are you?
Or are you an entirely new person
like everyone else
