Blessed Water
Let the lake’s frozen surface melt.
Gazing at its mirrored imagery,
Narcissus his own beauty felt.
Let your icy heart dissolve and transfigure
Into insubstantial cloud, ghosting thought
From wisp to angelic figure.
Let your dreams avoid all that’s wrong:
Steer into the sea’s calmest heart,
Shun the siren’s seductive song.
Come to my Piscean heart, drench it with tears;
Weep from far oceans, lakes, rivers and streams;
Let your cool touch absolve our darkest fears.
Bless with your own purest holy creed,
Quench your soul’s deep eternal thirst,
Satisfy your spiritual need.
