Slipping into the stream
I sit by water’s edge
drained of thought
and activity
as if melted
into moistness
Sliding past rocks
and trees
I am not alone
but merged with
my surroundings
Birds fly by
not noticing me
I don’t notice me
Time ceases to exist
Only my heartbeat
reminds me
I am human
And here
in this wonderland
of creation
peace
finally
befalls me.

Sherrie, This is just beautiful! The colors, the shapes, the subtlety of the face...it is a captivating image. Thanks as always for sharing your gift,
