River of Life
| River of Life Spring emerges like a newborn babe From the mountain top Flowing ever downward Building momentum Gaining strength and speed Widening and deepening Tentatively evolving and maturing Stream meanders back and forth Following the meadow's contours Adapting to its surroundings Sculpting its way forward Changing course with every challenge Unhampered by obstacles Unstoppable in its progress River rages over rapids Frothing with desire and drive Then lets go of the past And falls frighteningly out of control Into whirlpools of indecision Not knowing what the future holds Fearful and unsure of its vision And just when all appears to be lost in doubt Deep, clear Pool brings peace and serenity Confidently making its way onward Knowing balance and stability Enjoying symbiosis with Mother Nature Focused, determined, on purpose |

It pours is moist, healing strength Into every living thing on its way Leaving its mark on the Earth To be remembered forever Heaving a heavy sigh of surrender Anticipating an awesome future Merged in body and spirit with the Ocean of Oneness |
