Serenity on a River

[audio:Little_Miami_River-at-Milford2.mp3]

The sound of water running over rock
and wind blowing through the early autumn trees
produces a colorful peacefulness, a serenity in the soul.

Amongst a region of two million people
threading and weaving through the hills,
the river flows to a bigger one.

One only needs to step from the urban scene
to the banks of the river
to find that peace, even for a few minutes.
