Riding The Water I have been running a garden labyrinth to just another dead end retracing my grassy steps worn thin to dirt drowning in loneliness when inside me a dam broke starting as a drop as brief as it was captured moments encasing a lifetime and life tumbled out of somewhere secret a warm liquid comfort not too sure where my path may take these feet I wear but I can face the waves of fear for a river flows through me and as lonely as you can be I am never alone "I'm so hard to handle |

1slick_lady, "when inside me a dam broke starting as a drop as brief as it was captured moments encasing a lifetime and life tumbled out" Our life is supposed to flow into the soul, and soul to soul, that river of life keeps us in the spirit stream, life seeks to continue naturally like rivers to the ocean, so much enjoyed your wonderful words, Bloodline |

You know, Helen, some poems just kind of wrap around me. They evoke memories and feelings. This is one such poem. Alison |

Helen, you are the best at writing naturally graceful and flowing stream-of-thought poetry. This poem is quite beautiful. |
