Samhain Salutations all
Sheila has sent this image of the Derwent taken on an autumnal walk from St Bee's to Basenthwaite, the grade 2 rapids inspired her to write!
Ode to the River Derwent
River flowing, flowing onwards
Swiftly onwards towards the Lake.
River rippling, swelling, growing,
Flowing onwards towards the Lake.
Life is like this river,
young and spritely in it's youth,
Leaping, springing, growing wider,
Sometimes calm and often deep.
Maturity brings with it many pleasures.
Over rocks and dancing waves.
Meandering forwards,
Twisting, turning.
Ever forwards to journey's end.
Sheila
