A RIVER FLOWS
A river flows Through our awareness Soothing the seven streams of our consciousness Like a cooling balm
The river flows to pools of light where the burnished gold of autumn Reflects itself to us Like leaves on mirrored glass
we dip into the pool of loving awareness So cool and enveloping With gentle ease Guided by the tender touch of loving hands
And resurface with A glimpse of reality Where our names are written In the surface of a mountain of natural beauty Our names connected to each other with a rainbow of light Encircling the mountain
