Nature Poem


Today we went outside for creative writing. We were told to find an object of nature and write about its significance to us in either a poem or short story. I don't think mine's very good but here it is anyways...
The water runs swiftly down the creek
It twists and turns and the water changes directions
The changing water is like my life
Smooth sailing, relaxing, staying on the right cause
Then it hits a rock and everything changes direction.
New thoughts appear in my head
New things come into my life.
The course of the river is no longer smooth, but rocky
It gets all shaken up and a new path needs to be taken
A new, better path that leads in the smooth direction
The direction that leads me where I want to go.
Just like the river, when it gets rocky keep searching
The smooth path will arrive.
