Rapids Shining Like Diamonds

The languid Naches River
may seem spiritless or slothful
as it meanders on it’s way from the Yakima River

but as it becomes the Tieton River
with rapids swift and shining like the sparkling
of diamonds in the sun’s reflections
it can become treacherous
to those unbidden
