Pour your self
into the world you know
fill it up
but don’t overflow
take a drink
when you’re feeling low
just relax
and feel the flow
be like water
Soft as clouds
or hard as ice
nothing to steal
or sacrifice
rise the tide
no need
to build a dam
just have faith
in who I am
I am water
we are water
be like water

Flow of the Eternal Now
In the stream of existence, we flow,
Unbound, untamed, we grow.
From cloud to rain, to ice, to sea,
In our song, “Be Like Water,” we are free.
We rise, we fall, we ebb, we sway,
Through whimsiwords, our spirits play.
In the cosmic dance, we take our part,
For we are water, with oceanic heart.
We invite you to share your reflections on this flow of thoughts.
