The sky is gray
\nBut the water is clear
\nThe sound of water flowing
\nOf things growing
\nWhere once was desolation<\/em><\/p>\n

No voices here, no cries, no shouts
\nOnly Water, Nature, Sky and Wind<\/em><\/p>\n

Singing songs long forgotten by mortal men.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Wind Howls
\nThe Trees Sway
\nDestruction rains upon this land<\/em><\/p>\n

Then all is still
\nThen all is calm<\/em><\/p>\n

The leaves stir
\nAnd a mind wakes from years of slumber.<\/em><\/p>\n

The rock is cold
\nAnd I am old
\nNo longer on rivers do I travel bold<\/em><\/p>\n

To seek out new life,
\nBut that’s no fun.
\nFor when all’s found then what’s to be done
\nWith those who made it their life?
\n…And the Water Flows,
\nAnd I think of you. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
