Beneath the bridge the river flows <br /> along the bank side alder grows. <br />There in the shadow of the trees <br /> small creatures move about with ease. <br />Safe from the flying predators <br />which hunt along the water course. <br />In search of some small tasty bite <br /> to satisfy their appetite. <br />The riverside a habitat <br />for rabbit vole and water rat. <br />The peaceful waterside enjoys <br /> an almost total lack of noise. <br />I walk here seeking solitude <br />serenity and quietude. <br /> <br />4-May-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/breathing-space-for-friend-david-desantis/
