In a secluded creek
Solitude I seek
Far from the maddening crowds
Amidst the river and clouds
Away from the city’s loud noise
I’ve escaped, making a choice
To hear the brook’s musical rumble
As down the hill it tumbles
Whispering sagacious advice
As a witness to human vice
While in silence I try to decipher
The lessons nature tries to deliver.
