I am a Drop of Water

[not_broken_420]

It is then that we realize
We carry, by choice,
The weight of all we are and have been
Though many of us have forgotten
We can choose to release
And bear no burden, yet keep everything
In the eternal cycle of the waterfall

Carrying with us the awareness
How it feels to lie upon a cool rock
The sound of rushing water in no hurry
The taste of pure crystal clarity
Smelling the natural earth
How all the noise suddenly harmonizes
into an orchestra,
Accompaniment for a flawless performance

The water glides
Under an observing spider’s intricate web
Around a clinging, steadfast snail
Into a dark tunnel,
Emerging once again into a pool of light
I am as the snake,
Absorbing the sun’s energy through the earth
Solitary, still, searching
pondering

This is it!
And the sun is blinding
And the water deafening
And I can smell the trees and the moss
Repeating the mantra

Rapture.
An overwhelming sense of knowing
Still on this plane, but not tethered to it
Floating through and
Carrying nothing.

And I can smell the trees and the moss
Repeating the mantra

Rapture.
An overwhelming sense of knowing
Still on this plane, but not tethered to it
Floating through and
Carrying nothing.

I love this piece, I am such a dirty hippy..

The bit I quoted was my favourite, but I like the whole thing....I always find water really inspiring.

 

[up all night]

This is probably my favourite piece of writing I've read all week. What beautiful ideas.

 

[(Wordy)]

Simply magnificent!

Magically envisaged wisdom: the beauty of being and the being of beauty.
