Waxing Poetic on the Rivers

 

i live.
 
it is not yet my eyes cant rise to greet the sun,
not upon me the weight of wishing.
my feet can find the places
to reflect
a soul ambition
joyful is my song and long,
sung from deep within
to stare upon an infant thought
and feel it in my skin
 
you join me now
i sing of you
 gratitude i bring to you
 
high above this dancing root
a leaf is passionate
about a fruit
to sweeten life and ripen youth
some rain must fall
upon no roof.....
