Life is me and I am life.
I am water.
Sometimes I wash over in a flood- rushing.
To sweep away all that was and lay ground for new beginnings.
Then I can be a stream, gently flowing.
The tears that flow with emotion.
Vulnerability. I heal and replenish the soul.
I am the river.
A strong current of life, always moving and changing.
I bring nourishment and gifts. My span immense and my length spans the country.
Though there may be ebb and flow I am constant as I run.
The path for many and a way of deliverance from far away.
I am the ocean.
I come in and move out dancing with the moon.
Sometimes powerful and dangerous, always beautiful and eternal.
I can crash and sweep- hiding the past as I keep safe the secrets and drown out sorrows.
I can also be vicious- devouring what seeks to conquer me.
I always bring wonder and inspiration to those who respect me.
I am the water alive, depleted- yet vital; I will come and I'll go.
I am life giving and life taking- neither all good or bad.
I am water- and like you, I require care.
