Solitude

A solitary rock
By the water's edge
Reaching toward heaven's eye
Light glints off the water
A breeze ruffles the leaves on the trees
There's magic in the greetops
Like a lacy fringe of green
Caressing the sky
Endless birdsong
Each sound in harmony
Creation's symphony
Man intrudes
Voices, cars, trains
Be quiet, noisy man
And listen to the wind
