As I Watch These Rivers Surge
Dancing, as they stream down,
Cascading into these oceans of freedom,
As they spread purity into
The salty water,
Flowing smoothly,
Pouring like water into a glass….
A captivating view,
As these droplets of water splash their
Tenderness everywhere,
---------------------
A-h-h-h! This tempting vision,
As I sat there pondering,
Contemplating, meditating…
I closed my eyes,
Craving for that sensation once more,
The sensation of tenderness that
Splashed,
The sound of its pure waters chanted…
I once again was enchanted
By its allure,
For the world around me was pure,
As feelings slithered underneath
Its soothing waves,
Sympathy, comprehension, empathy
All came drenching me,
I smiled for I inhaled the odor
Of sweetness,
The perfume of perfection,
Mmm! As I smelt its scent!
It allayed me with every breath…
It caressed my flesh,
Dawn, as the sun began to rise,
As tears rejoiced in my eyes…
I continued staring at the flowing river,
As its movement slowed down…
Reminiscences,
As memories rushed back
I smiled…for I knew everything is evanescent,
“Forever” is never to join with happiness …
As I closed my eyes,
Trying not to remember…
The chanting melodies gradually faded,
Until they completely stopped,
I opened my eyes,
Feeling deep remorse, realizing
That the river’s flow completely ceased…
Everything came to an end.
