A Creek

We hike through the woods,

Down towards the creek, 

Paying no mind to mud.

Adventures we seek.

And there it is running

So clear and so cool, 

So thick and so fast. 

It encases rocks, trees, and logs.

The sound of its flowing,

Like a breath of fresh air

Sends tingles up and down

As it relaxes my body. 

We think of water as blue, 

But look a little closer

To see the real colors. 

The clear water shows

The dark mud below

And reflects white and blue light

From the sun and the sky

On the surface.

AIl you must do is

Look a little closer.

Oh, the wonders God has made! 

He is so incredibly amazing!
