| # 2019-04-23 - Bear Creek by Ben Collver | |
| Middle Coquille she knew me well before when i could speak. | |
| Along her side the children hide and play them find and seek. | |
| On their way to grandparent's house they stop to dip their toes. | |
| Around boulders in fairyland the river of time she flows. | |
| Once spanned her girth a footbridge where now noone recalls nor knows. | |
| Remembered Earth a deeper truth, the strength of the soft and weak. | |
| Pay mine respects to the beautiful neck of the woods near old bear creek. | |
| Land of cedar, myrtle, and madrone. | |
| Neither far there nor near to my home. | |
| Land of lamprey and lizards on stone. | |
| To these places my heart goes alone. | |
