The Mysterious Creek

Glancing towards the mysterious creek
Wondering, pondering, thinking, I seek
What pain has his creek been shown
Inside I think I hear it moan

Then again I stop and think,
What love is stored in its memory with ink?
Deep romantic love storied told,
Who’s young future does it hold?

The creek is peaceful, not at all ill,
Pausing, stopping, halting, it’s still
I await a story to be whispered in my ear
Waiting even longer for a story in fear

I then think to myself ‘this is not at all true’
The creek is merely waiting for its cue
It’s not yet time for her stories to unfold
Deep within her heart she tightly holds
