Face of the River

by Audrey M Scott


Yesterday,
gusty strong winds whipped its
countenance into furrows,
swiping the peaks of waves into
white frothy sprays, which frolicked to
the winds teasing.

Today it is a picture of quietness,
gray dimpled waters winking in
soft daylight.

From the banks, reflected tree shadows,
a reminder of the beauty of its many faces.

In the reeds a lone white Egret, stilted,
slowly steps searching out a meal.
