soggy muddy path
blue veins on the yellow floor
weaving around rocks
sunlight pulling long shadows
silent creek seeking the flood
sobbing waterfall
the ferns perfectly they stand
half dark ying yang mount
limbs leaning towards the river
natural spiral stone stairways
subtle streams tremble
trickle trickle trickle drip
leaves print the surface
smiles gashed within your side
hallow ocean of branches
clouds come in with fall
overcast shallow footprints
leaves smashed within them
