I Walk on Water
I walk on water…
I feel the coolness of the rolling waves
Splash beneath my feet.
I watch the sun sprinkle diamonds across the sea.
I float above the clouds and feel the radiant warmth
Of the sun bless my body.
I feel the power of the wind caress or twist
And break anything into submission.
I rise above the towering Alps…snowcapped and pristine.
I enjoy a fragile flower sharing the faint scent of heaven.
I know the grandeur of the Sequoias…ever growing.
I blend with verdant pastures and
Serene rolling hills in misty rain.
I know the secrets of the deep dark abyss.
I sense the moon’s tenderness and share in her emotions.
I flow with the clever rivers seeking new exciting paths.
I form a shimmering rainbow in waterfalls.
I am free to be the wind, the earth, the sea,
While all you see is me.

DeleteDear Connie,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the aerial view of special sites you created with your words. (Sometimes I dream of flying and see such views.) In your poem you seem to be one with nature: "the wind, the earth, the sea." What a special feeling that is! It was a treat to take this journey above the Earth with you, Connie. An amazing poem!
Love,
Carolyn
