Secrets of the River’s Whisper (When You Listen Closely)

Beneath life's burdens, wander lost and free,
Amidst nature's embrace, find purpose in thee.
Sat beneath the willow's shade, a silent, timeless guide,
As nature's symphony unfolds, by the river's side.
A warm September morn, like a mother's sweet song,
Guides your steps forward, where you truly belong.
Through the forest's elusive path, you'll be led,
With possibilities branching, like a fig tree widespread.
Stretch out your limbs, like a lizard in light,
Chasing carnal desires, questioning their rightful sight.
In the dance of temptation, through the darkest of nights,
Seek the dawn of understanding, where true wisdom ignites.
Yet a night-tipping fairy, in whispers so light,
Will find you in the silence, dispelling the night's slight.
Recalling the crisp breeze and love's sweet decree,
A loved one's kiss upon your neck, tender and free.
Head on your pillow, day's weariness fades,
In nature's embrace, find the peace you cannot trade.
Gaze out the window, where the night's canvas thrives,
Venus winks and her celestial daughters fly.
