The Art of Water

gray0328

 

how does it know to move  

just enough to kiss the shore  

then pull back like a lover  

leaving you wanting always more  

 

it speaks in whispers or wails  

soft lullabies turn to roaring screams  

depending on the pull of moons  

depending on your place in time  

 

it is both mother and monster  

offering life with one hand  

taking it back with the other  

as if to teach us balance  

 

whoever carved this world knew  

what it meant to hold opposites  

to lace chaos with calm so carefully  

that we would call it beautiful
