Moving, always flowing
Passing by my window
Life giving water
Carrying fish to spawn
Ducks to forage
Frogs to serenade
Turtles to sunbath
Herons and Egrets to wade
As alligators lazily meander past
Riding the currents, those
Ripples of lifeÂ
Glinting in sunlight
Lulling me away from my work
Enticed by the lake life’s cycle
Unfolding on nature’s stage
Before my window
In endless ripples
Waving at me
Inviting me to join
Nature’s timeless flow
