Swift RiverCummington, Massachusetts
The river told the frozen stream,
"Melt and come with me,
and I'll take you on a journey
from the woodlands to the sea."
The stream told the river,
"Oh, that sounds like so much fun,
but I can't flow any faster,
if there isn't any sun."
The river splashed and gurgled,
"Don't worry 'bout a thing,
we'll just run slow in winter,
and get there by the spring!"

Lovely photo and poem! The two complement each other wonderfully.
Beautiful picture ! I'm sure the water is really cold.
Such pretty blue/green color in that river... wow. You are truly have cold weather there aren't you? Sure hope you get to stay warm!
A nice looking Winter photo, Sunny. I like the poem, also. Looks so cold.
I enlarged the picture, it's fabulous!
A dream and I loved all colours, almost can feel the cold wind there...
Perfect shot and perfect poem.I have some doubt now...I think you wrote the poem, don't you? It's beautiful!
Anyway, if not, thanks for sharing, I really liked it!
God bless you

Brrr, slow, cold river. Isn't the blue ice an exquisite color?
Gorgeous picture, precious poem!
Sunny...I thought your river scene was beautiful and then I read the lovely impressive poem...they are perfect together! Truly enjoyed your post! I loved it, really I did!!!
I miss those rock filled streams. we don't have them here in Florida, or at least not where i live and I love to hear a stream as it runs over the rocks. we called them creeks in GA and KY. I like the poem also.
Thanks to Wands's tip off, I see the rhyming poetry bug has bitten you today! Hoorah!
That is a wonderful shot but you must have been so cold. I had to laugh when you told me about the woman in the photo that turned out to be you. lol, Keep it up because you take great pictures. :)
I love your poem, and the picture is absolutely beautiful. It is especially beautiful when enlarged.
Hi Sunny,
Your photo of the stream in the woods is gorgeous. I love all the wonderful colors, it looks like you painted it.
Your poem is pure pleasure!
Swift River, so peacefull and pleasing to the eye. It seems, it must not be that cold.
I love the poem,and enjoy all of your blogs.
Oh my goodness! Your poem, which is very clever by the way, is so perfect for this picture. I've never seen anything like this. I did what George said and enlarged the photo. Gorgeous but oh so cold.

Love the poem and very nice photo to go along with it. I kind of feel like that river, I move slower in winter than in warmer weather. LOL

Hi Sunny, I'll bet that water is cold.. As we say here in the south, it is "Plum Cold".... ha
