The sun was
Up this morning;
Now hiding under
The quilted sky.
Up this morning;
Now hiding under
The quilted sky.
The angry river,
Quieter now,
It’s undercurrent
Still displayed
Across it’s surface.
And the reservoir
Awaits patiently
For busy hands
To return.
things have been calming down in your words...
