“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. – Margaret Atwood, The Penelopiad
Pour down rushing cascades
Filling the voids in hungry glades
Creation born in the splashing enclave
Swimming in the abundant rains
Pictured for me in the grand scheme
An image of strength for my soul’s need
A river flowing from a source so high
Allowing fresh life, relieving my deep sigh
Frolic in peace, the swirling water alive
I swim with ease, living I no longer cry
