Rushing Waters

pic Truedessa's collection


can you hear the rushing waters call 
on a  mountaintop snow melts away 
dreamers gather come one come  all 
  
under starlight our world  feels small 
caught in the magic,  branches sway 
can you hear the rushing waters call 

amidst  trees, spirited deer stands tall
healing souls as distant drums play 
dreamers gather come one come  all 

shimmering stardust begins to fall 
chasing away thoughts dark and grey
can you hear the rushing waters call 

tears flows down a mountain wall   
forming a stream with rock and clay 
dreamers gather come one come all 

in silence the white horse does neigh
bursting over the horizon a new day 
can you  hear  the rushing waters call 
dreamers gather come one come all

I wrote this while on a mountaintop

  3. Having all around, with noting but rushing waters, dreamers and nature found, would sure be peaceful indeed. Set the stage at your feed.

  5. Love, love, love it....How you began and continued the same lines throughout drew me down that river....and hearing the rushing water fall from the mountains is such a spiritual experience indeed.

  6. What a wonderful Villanelle.. The way the streams are calling, I get the feeling of melting snow of spring and hope. I'm dancing to your words,

  7. can you hear the rushing waters call

    That's the beauty of the Villanelle. Repeating lines keep the flow of movements mobile and moving. Great write Truedessa!

  13. How cool to take time to write poetry when on a mountaintop. No wonder this poem just felt so authentic -- It must be wonderful to look down at those rushing waters and up at the shimmering stardust!

  14. Rushing waters indeed - and beautifully realised here, with the effective use of repetition - reminded me off my recent spectacular visit to a waterfall - Thank you With Best Wishes Scott www.scotthastie.com

  21. Ahhh, all of my favorite things about nature. You know, I never thought of a waterfall as a mountain's tears. I just assumed they were always happy. :)

  31. Hey Trudessa,

    I wish my rushing waters had got me here quicker. Maybe that didn't sound right :) What I mean is that I'm sorry for my recent inconsistent commenting nature.

    I relate to this in my own way. Your words doth flow and flow in more ways than one. Just outside my new place is a creek. Alone at night, the tears from eyes mingle amongst the rushing waters.

    Thank you, my kind friend.

    Gary :)
