Like Waters

What can flow like water?
Look at its gentleness
So polite in movement.
Careful not to be so rough
Fetching what the wind throws
In a manner even where silence is too loud.
Listen not to the water
But what the water attracts.
Its quietness reserved for water bred species.
Water’s earth before it was land’s.
A silent sanctuary too calm and ordinary
For the busy bee…
No pollen for him here.
He must find his plant
Grown for him to pollinate.
Back to where the water ends
And the land emerges.

I like this.  It has a simple, yet elegant feel.  

Cool, refreshing, pleasing

well done.

Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn.
Nil Desperandum, Fata viem invenient
