Rocky River Retreat

There's something about a river... 

What, precisely? 


Je ne sais quoi.


Its motion?

 Drifting. Idling. Eddying. Rushing. Falling.

Ever changing, always new. 


Its timelessness?

Ancient stones, eternal elements.


Its power?

Relentless, unstoppable, valley-digger, mover of mountains.


Its beauty?

Light and dark; crystal clear and impenetrable; prism and mirror and magnifier.

It's simple, really; and impossibly complex.


Yes, there's something about a river...

that brings out the best in me.
