Finished artwork for this poem is on the portfolio and in the gallery, be sure to read the the first two poems if you haven’t already. To myself, water is a story being told. Spoken word more than a poem. I have learned in writing this poem that people are similar to water, and very much different from each other.
Oh, the way the water flows…
does anybody know?
How being one with the water goes,
the shapes of water form, ebb and flow.
All puddles, creeks and ponds become one with another,
every living being is now following this water,
the wiggles becoming waves as the energy flows.
Remember, you don’t know where this goes,
only watching it go, around and around.
Wishing and wooing, the sound of it’s energy moving,
reshaping the land, being one with the ground.
Water will go wherever it wants and whenever it can.
Where will this energy go when no human is around?
Nobody knows.
THE END
Thinking through an abstract lens of the world… I realized that
- water can be shaped and formed, as can people.
- water ebbs and flows with how the world goes, as can people.
- water supports other living things, as can people.
- water comes in a variety of energies, not just forms, as can people.
A major difference that comes to mind though is, water doesn’t think.
People can.
don’t forget about the portfolio, where you can find all my finished artwork and some works in progress.
Stay tuned for another post coming soon!
