The Waters or the Woods

Forgive me,
I am trying to see into the dense forest,
and failing to notice the brook three feet ahead.
The mystery lures me into the woods,
while the simplistic and palpable waters are passed by.
I am now among tall trees that bear no leaves of blossoms,
and now notice that there is nothing there to be seen.
I am looking back behind me,
to the gently fading ripples of the peaceful mist,
and praying to God that I can reach it before
it disappears forever.
I am stumbling over the echo in my head that is conjuring up old opinions and beliefs,
and I've arrived at the last few drops in just enough time
to drink them up and keep them in my thirsting heart.

This has quality set within it's words. I like what you have done using the forest and stream etc. One often reads a city used same way. You are a talented poet. Welcome aboard.
