Strong breezes ripple waves
that chop, flop, noisily ...
cut by the sky's gray haze
faze.

Tangles of hued, trunked trees
cuddle along the bank
splitting waters with ease
squeeze.

White froth jutting through rocks
chomps down erosively,
rhythmatically socks
mocks.

Old life, tremors, shatters
swirling dark, haphazard,
skillfully churns water
splatters.

Baptized, risque' venue
current stoked, soaked clear through,
born ... by water renewed
reviewed.

Strange tangles of with froth
joyfully entices
like lanterns do a moth
mammoth.

Soaked to the bone with glee
He reaches out to me
after water washed away
dismay.
