"The surge and clatter of whitewater coneals
how shallow underneath is, how quickly gone.
Leave that noise behind. Come here
where the water is slow and clear.
Watch the crayfish prance across the sand,
the mica flash, the sculpin blend with stone.
It's all beyond your reach though it appears
as near and known as your outstretched hand."
