Mystic Rites

 

I walk up the river

just to clear my mind

The river returns my request

with not an answer just a puzzle.

Still clouded like our lives

Life has as the river

become a riddle.
Well that's fine!
for I have been initiated
long before with a life of experience
twist and turns.
I will now claim
my Mystic Rites.
