Peace and solitude
 



The Brook
Paul Garrity



The sunshine flows through
The barren limbs
Bringing the brook to life
As it rambles along

Blue ceiling above
Cold white  below
Rocks surrounded by water
That look like frosted cookies

Hills on both sides
Laced with green conifers,
Stripped of color,
Except drab gray.

But the only sound near
Is the babbling of the brook
Cascading down the hill
It's beauty calming, reassuring.

God  created this place
So grand and serene
For escape from life
For escape from pain

A secret place,
Away from the crowd
Where worry is far
Thank you, thank you
