Words drip like water
from the tips of icicles
On a spring day,
Feeding the earth with
Cold moisture to be stored
In the empty spaces
For the dry times.

Words flow like streams
Over soft soil
Eroding away the debris until
Bedrock
Hard and resisting
begins to feel
The wearing wash

Words undulate
Like waves
Leaving behind on their
Retreat
Odd bits of treasure
For the curious to find

Words Shared…
With you.

I so love the feel of this, the whole piece undulates waves of sensations with words carved as if into sand and water's swell

it feels like gentl hair-brushing, why is that? it doesn't speak of such

I'm amazed.

Hi Cpat. Hair,

I really loved the imagery of this poem and the message it convays, it's also thought provoking, enjoyed.

Love, Cerenity

I never get tired of hearing about words, I love words...just have to be careful which ones we choose.
