Floating On the Waters of Life

Serena is floating on the waters of life
unhurried 
unworried

Her body in joyful repose
Every muscle and tendon open and relaxed
she flows as easily as the breeze twinkles the leaves

Others watch in amazement
as she glides effortlessly in and out of this world
her spirit deciding

Whether it is time to go or to stay
Death, just another water
where she will drink

when ready….

Serenity...something we seek, but very few find. Apparently she has.

She surely has; she is relaxing into the next step

As the name suggests, Serena must be a very serene person, 'gliding effortlessly in and out of this world'. May she enjoy eternal repose...

She is enjoying the idea of it too
