The city skyline looms ahead,
The large steel frame of a bridge stands behind.
Next to me lies a long highway,
The loud rush of its cars filling my ears.
Sandwiched between these huge structures,
Lies a tiny gem of calm nature.
An escape from the busy life of the city,
Leaving way for
Murky water to carry colored leaves,
Ominous fog to swirl,
Logs to slip past,
And rain to ripple through glassy water.

Leaving way for

Ominous fog to swirl,

And rain to ripple through glassy water.
