Does water weep ?
Upon its way
A lonely river
A deserted day
Idle teardrops
From rainy skies
Fall and disperse
From hidden eyes.
Does water dream ?
A prayer to say
To highest Heaven
As it flows away
Journey repeated
To rolling seas
To return
Upon the breeze.
Does water love ?
Or with cradled hands
Hold tender thoughts
Of churning sands
Its rippled courage
To brave again
Its endless journey
Repeat the same.

Water can show us all emotions Norman we just need to realise that.

Good write N. You could take a canoe on the river and paddle to town instead of waiting for that bus for 3 hours. lol.

Most welcome
Norman, this carries a steady, reflective current…those questions about weeping, dreaming, loving all fold into that endless return. It feels like more than observation…like you’re giving the water a voice without forcing it. Well written. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Water, liquid gold that we maybe take for granted.
so true my friend, thanks for reading appreciated
Well done. Your poem explores the personification of water, pondering its emotional and existential qualities. It raises questions about water's capacity to feel—whether it can weep, dream, or love—thus inviting readers to reflect on the nature of existence and the interconnectedness of life.
