Morning Rush

I hear the river flowing down the mountain,
The waters glistening in the gentle gleam of the sun,
The snow, slowly melting off the peaks,
Meets the river in a stream
I run my hand through the cold water,
Feeling a chill up my spine,
The river contains memories,
Flowing continuously, driven by nature
What secrets do you hold beneath your endless stream?
I carry artifacts and memories, lost in time.
I feel like I’m at home when I’m near you
Keep me clean and pure, and I’ll nourish the land.
The air is fresh,
Filled with the scent of nature,
As I stand there, I feel a strong connection
To the rhythm of nature
Each wave of water,
A whisper of stories,
I bend down to talk to the river,
Feeling finally at home
