By The Riverside

by bubbles5


Amongst the chattering reeds I lie,
Listening,
To the birds gossip,
And the trees creaking back and forth,
I watch lazily,
As the river meanders thoughtfully,
Its waters quivering at the breezes touch,
The grass cushions my weary body,
The sun smiles tenderly,
Stroking my skin softly,
The nearby bushes singing a gentle lullaby,
Tempting my eyes to close,
And the clouds watch over,
As I drift into dreams untold,
Soothed by the riverside.

Cheat your landlord if you can and must, but do not try to shortchange the Muse. It cannot be done. You can’t fake quality any more than you can fake a good meal.
