As The Stream Runs By [5 Haikus]

by Jessica   Jun 10, 2006


As the stream runs by
It splashes and shines with grace
Leaving you enthralled..

The stunning movement
Of dazzling water flowing
Shocks the eyes of us..

She swirls and twinkles
In the golden rays of sun
Leaving behind all..

The pretty blossoms
Of startling trees far and wide
Float in her waters..

And as we gaze close
We see the beauty clearly
Always flowing by..
