silent-
deep

Stopping now
I have no wish to
go on
Here at this place-
the great river finds
its magnificence
Its infinite expanse
of knowledge
Taken from the cruel
turns, in downward
descent
And here at the
edge of time-with
this placid river
I rest

Placid River 

Stopping now
Here in the quiet place
Where I wish to dwell-
the rest of my life
Place of peace and
ultimate serenity
Amber orange hue
to a perfect sky
Clear and pure
Earth, fertile and free
To grow my thoughts
And water still,
silent-
deep

Stopping now
I have no wish to
go on
Here at this place-
the great river finds
its magnificence
Its infinite expanse
of knowledge
Taken from the cruel
turns, in downward
descent
And here at the
edge of time-with
this placid river
I rest
