Poetry: A walk through life

by Melissa R. Bickel

Along an ivy covered wall
vines grow freely.
Their green fill in empty spaces.

Crocus rest along a babbling stream.
Here sunlight skims the surface of turquoise
waters, creating gaudy reflections of
jewel toned water droplets.

A Kismet
for the gentle soul.

Sometimes a lone traveler passes,
not aware of his surroundings;
he walks through life.

Such beauty is visible
to those who hear the water.
