feel its refreshment in the same ways,
drink the joy of recognition,
relish the kinship in your deepest currents
Both of you have flowed through long channels,
both are bearing many memories,
you will take the time to really listen,
you will stand and close your eyes and see
It's no surprise that later you'll feel stronger -
layers of worry smoothed from off your brow.
You'll keep the creek dance with you as you travel -
as it invites you, you'll remember how.
