I’m amazed at the alchemy of my body…

once it produced hair of rose gold,

and  now it makes spun silver.

My part in this magic –

is staying alive!

 

Spirit river deep and cold

Never timid, always bold.

You always know just where to go

Ever forward with the flow.

Flowing ‘neath the super moon

To your charms I’m not immune.

Morning sun brings sparkling surface

But that’s not your greatest purpose.

Home to fish and rocks and birds

Hard to capture with just words.

Your fascinating in every season

I love you even when it’s freezin’!
