Fresh Mountain Stream

She is a fresh

Mountain stream

Running off

From the

Ridge above

Bringing sustenance

Life-giving joy

To the privileged

Experiencing her

Essence and joy

Smiling with

Twinkling eyes

Snorting with 

Heartfelt laughter

Inviting a step

Towards the

Delightful rhythm

Of her

Eternal soul
