She is of the water
Of the crystal lake she comes
And of the endless ebb and flow
She yields, succumbs
She’ll swim in tides
And on misshapen boats she rides
Beneath mist covered skies
She loves and dies
She is the ocean
The smallest river
The running creeks
And more and more
She is the raindrops
On your cheeks
And through the droplets
Wisdom speaks
A tale to tell
You know it well
She is the water
The ocean’s swell
And she’ll draw you down
To swim or drown
To heaven
Or to hell

ephemeral and beautiful
When I lived on the Gulf of Mexico, I met “She” a few times. Well done, Helen.
How cool! Thanks John! 🙂
