~ Along the River

 

I stared, for hours;

Until I felt a warm hand

On my shoulder,

 

     So I turned around

To catch a glimpse of your face,

A fragment of touch;

 

     And I saw nothing,

Not even you, but you were there,

I knew we traveled to Japan,

     It was another river,

     Another air;

 

On the “Shinano”

We are and stare...

 

While the Sun arises

    In a golden light,

 

And the day would come soon,

 

     You just touched

           A bit of the so

Silver  moon.

Silent reflections
carry the warmth to shadows
pausing on the shore.

And when all is silent,
They connect,
With warmth to the core,

Thank you dear friend xx
