The Water Never Stands Still
Wufengci Waterfall in Taiwann. Image and more information can be found here |
Never runs back to visit
to risk tearing open old wounds
for a peak at what once was--
perhaps it will be again...
But water can only look forward.
It cannot worry
about the life it left behind;
about troubles that have always been--
the water only moves on
And its beauty never fades
Rushing forth to the unknown
a path cut deep in the earth
cradling unfazed molecules
unconcerned, unbreakable
Flowing gently toward something...
The water never stands still
it lives to reach its paradise
carrying its dirt and debris
along its winding twists and turns
Until its all melded together
one body,
one heartbeat,
flowing at peace.
