Bright face of sunshine rises above
Hues of pine, spruce, and fir against
Cerulean sky backdrop
Lazy, shallow, dark currents of river caress boulders and ripple over pebbles
Meandering toward the sea in no hurry to leave this place of rich beauty
Flocks of birds call out musical notes
Trills like flutes and squawks in deep baritone
Hawks swoop and soar like a maestro
Orchestrating another beautiful day in Leavenworth
