Shape of Mind : Watery

SHAPE OF MIND : WATERY  
                        
           Water existing in three natural forms
            shows three different shapes,
            as liquid to fit in shape of container.
             When water freezes, comes in solid state:
          Ice, glacier, iceberg, snow, hails appear in varied configuration.
        Water turning vapor escapes in limitless contour.

          Mind resembling water exhibits three patterns.
           Being affirmative, assertive, gallant, aggressive,                    
           envious or revengeful mind solidifies in stern attitude.
           Rigid mind in solid texture showing dynamism,
           acts harsh if needed. 

         When compassionate, kind, jovial or rippling in love,
           mind melts drifting in dreamy stream of emotion.
          accommodating and welcoming like liquid water flow

            Transcending to sensual spiritual mode 
             mind entwines with soul soaring high
            in ecstatic vapour of ethereal glow.

             Wonderful water initiating Life.
           Marvelous mind controlling life- long journey.
             Both run in same three styles flashing human profile.
              If not polluted, stands sterile.
