Timeless Travel In Verse
The Spring
The water pool beckons
Off in the distance
Cool refreshing
Impression
But its wet allure
Placid surface
Only an illusion
Upon approach
Steam comes into view
Placid no more
Then bursting
I stay on the ridge move ahead
Find the wooded valley, riverbed
Relief from my thirsting
Undone
We think we know the game
Think ourselves key players
Then the game revealed
A fool's errand?
Lost and undone
But if in that finding,
true north found
Game won
