Life's Like a River

When days are getting short
And winter comes along
Your life slows down and down
Like a river getting wide
The worlds have lost their force
You remember your morning flow into the endless sea

*The Scorpions/ Life's Like a River

Today's photo is dedicated to a friend and excellent photographer, Neil Brake, who passed away Nov 4. Neil was one of the best and will be sorely missed.

Part of the November Challenge which is A Song, A Poem or A Proverb.
