The new year has begun
the espousal of living with nature
a solo adventure
from streams to a glacier
Searching the forest
being quite reserved
looking for a measly stream
to walk by and observe
Following a stream
as it begins with a trickle
flowing through the rocks
my feet can feel a tickle
Now it flows into a lake
feeding all that it surrounds
there is a waterfall near
making thunderous sounds
Into the mountains
the air is cold
looking down at a river
there is blue ice from old
Floating farther north
glaciers have formed
at the top of the world
this is the norm
Reflecting with awe
the streams and glaciers began with a drop
beautiful rain falling from the sky
feeding life nonstop

Ever since The Great Flood, water has been taking the path of least resistance, gravity driven. To follow the path, and observe, is fascinating, but requires imagination. Your poem reads as though you were overhead, witnessing the entire trek.
I agree. Water does take the path of least resistance and creates along the way. I am fascinated with water and how it flows. Such beauty and power. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
