Thoughts

I want to write about something
It's there in my thoughts
It doesn't want to speak,
As my eyes see....

My mind completes the feeling
I have
Not from sound,but sight....

Like today
The sight of the lake
Like a blue glass
Trees of dark green
Birds in flight
Gliding towards the water....

As my eyes seen
I could hear the sights
That made me feel alive....

The call of the Canada geese
As they flocked together
Mallard ducks gliding across the water....

The small creeks trickling
Crystal clear water on their fall....

The boat slipping through the water
The paddles stirring currents
Of white waves
As we pushed forward....

Fishing poles in hand
With line and bobber
The line and worm
Being so silent....

To me it was beautiful
Nature at its best....

I can keep these sights
These sounds to myself
Do I have to pen these
On paper....

Or wait for more thoughts
To come to mind
Its not because I won't speak
Its because I listen......
