The Wondrous Stream

Consistently, you move along, winding in and out, gliding with stealth and grace- a stream that began so narrow and small, but grew to a wondrous length. With a weave of branchlets, jutting everywhere, joining in freely from the most powerful central source, you gift your constant, gushing song. Oh, great rushing stream, you are the sacred life that feeds this precious place where you flow, day after day, with steady, pulsing ripples from your core. From an endless surge, you and your tiny streamlets nourish well this host. Oh, sweet gift of life! I am alive- by your full stream of rich, flowing blood. Sandra M.
