Do Not Rush The Gentle Stream

Do not rush the gentle stream

With a nudging gush, where I am

By the way of this placid scene

As I let it race down the silver sand

I lost myself, as lost as a lamb

At the lapping sounds of pebbles,

That quivered silently below the serene

Do not rush the gentle stream,

Oh for on the contrary, may it never settle

But be the rivulet, that fills

The great lake of our dreams

No, it is not likely the gentle stream

Will be disturbed and swell

If we let it carry wayward

Seamless and unfettered,

Below the boughs and the natural trills,

Who each give a hand

To this treasure gifted to man

Do not rush the gentle stream, my friend,

Lay your sticks on the trail,

Lay your tracks on the sand path

That stream us from nature, and homeward
