Beneath the Waves...

The river winds
     or does it unravel?
Like a leaf floating along the river's edge,
     a lovely way to travel
You can almost hear the glistening,
     listening to the water's echo
Is it a fog or mist
     rising from the shadows?

The trail is long
     but it's a wonder
ever changing, ever new,
     some it tears asunder
Fragile beauty can be frightening,
     tranquil times enlightening
the wolf's coat, the eagle's wings,
     the coyote's howl...

The seas are wide,
      some say there's no bottom
Lost among the waves,
     Atlantis hidden in the fathoms
From here i've heard man rose
     rising from the foam
and he's been lost ever since,
     searching for his home...
