Surge

You don’t have to go very far

Just off the trodden path

A step you have missed

Maybe

You don’t have to see very far

Just past the reeds

A pulse you have forgotten

Almost

Swirling over pebbles

Fleeting into eddies

Thrilling along banks of moss

You don’t have to swim very far

Just enough to drift

A surge you have found
