The River Walk

By : Joshua Bosworth

Further up the river shall we go
The tangled trees above, mirrored below.
Throwing rocks, watching as the ripples spread
on Into our lives.

The thoughts within our head,
Fleeting moments as what stirs behind us
Embraced in a silence, no one can find us
Swinging, past, present, new laughs, old memory’s
faint whispers of a future, soon we’ll see.
Come further up the river with me.

The last few days here in Ireland have been just wonderful, the weather has been like old times, long summer days in the sun and the country.

So time for a Poem :

by Lakota

As I lay in the grass,
The blades brushing against my neck,
I stare at the sky; washed with
orange; splashed with pink.

As the sun dips slowly lower,
fading from my near-distant sight.
Giving the gift of colour to the sky,
and I blink once, and it’s gone.

As I think of nature, love, and time,
I hear music, softly piercing my ears.
The pipes, and pan-flute, the beat of the bohdran and fiddle,
I let out a sigh of contentment, and close my eyes.

It’s here, that I’m home.
