Talking Stream
Talking Stream
River stones
Redwood reaching
Quiet beseeching
Sunlight plays
Upon green leaves
Rocks, trees
All practicing, stillness
While talking stream
Babbles on
Telling story

Relaxing visual imagery!
I felt a beatnik coming on. But I appreciated “While talking stream babbles on telling story”
I really like visualizing the whole picture while the babbling–talking stream seems to be telling everything and everyone a story…loved the line:
“Rocks, trees
All practicing, stillness”
—Like they better listen!
I like that you innumerate all the elements and that allows me to create a picture of my own, which may resemble a meaningful place that I have seen. The simplicity expands the possibilities. Well done! Thank you
love the self-sufficiency of nature
I felt the rhythm of that stream in your poem
