In Harmony Together.

Goldfinch60



There I was once more

Walking by My River,

My lover and I hand in hand

Walking in harmony,

In harmony with My River.

But it was different,

The clear green water

Flowed passed so swiftly,

Its brown muddy state

So dirty and fast,

Nearly up to the top ,

The top of the bank.

It had been over the top,

Flooding the park.

It had subsided

And the park was back,

Back to its green swards.

The ducks and swans paddled,

Paddled on the side of the water,

The water being so fast,

So fast for them to swim against.

We walked along though

Enjoying the fresh air

And the glory of the countryside.

As we walked I knew,

Knew that all would be well

And My River would be back,

Back as usual,

Its wonderful clear green life

Showing me the way

As My Life went on forever

In the harmony of My River,

My Lover, and My Spirit.

    A fine write Gold.
    I chose that piece of music to analyse, in a short course I did. Not that I'm a musical analyst or whatever.

      Thanks Orchi,

      I have a cd called Pachelbel's Favourite Work and it is played and sung by many different musicians.

            Green the symbol of new life. A great metaphor Andy. Clear with youth and harmony brown and muddy with life's age and cycles all so fast. Life passes so fast but it returns in its cycles always in harmony. If only we can see that harmony and stay with it. Beautiful

              Beautifully penned my friend, the scene you set. The river, ever changing, your life and your love constant. I love that you call it "My River" for you are one with it.

              • Goldfinch60

                So true Bella, My River will always flow with me.

                Andy
