Seeking

Secrets sought
and love lost
are rarely discovered
in fog filtered
reflections from
restless river
surfaces.
Seek out still
waters under
cloudless skies,
where you will
find clear images
to consider
and truer
paths to
pursue.

For The Mag image prompt.

    I love the way this sounds:

    fog filtered
    reflections from
    restless river
    surfaces

    Your reflections from the river water made my day, Mark. I love the title and I have to say I have a passion for rivers. Thanks for sharing this. =D

    A poem deeper than the waters of the river, beautifully worded and constructed. Sounds like a song.
    Some people prefer searching in darkness for they are afraid of the Truth or… blind.
