Cascading Water

Cascading water 
crystalline blue;
Rid me of stains 
the days produce.

Make haste to quench 
my torrid throat.
Seal, cavernous wounds,
this body totes.

Disguise these tears
that drench my face.
Soothe aching muscles,
my strength replace.

Defuse the doubt
that clouds my mind.
Spiritual drops
refreshes soul, divine.

Reviving energy 
pours from the spout.
Welcoming, comforting
its warmth, its sound.

Once you're well done
with all my requests,
cleanse dreadful dreams
so I may rest.
