An Aspect Of Water

An aspect of water Is that it owns all, yet possesses nothing, That it is service-bent, yet never spent... It is the revered ancestor of all living things... It steams upward, with its heat held glorified, As a newborn streaming stretching body of the sky... To draw down from heaven... both beauty and grace... Shower-made, it falls fast and thin Upon the oldest survivor, Earth... All ears, listen through the ear To each drop's eternal music, Whose separate consciousness Dances to the rhythms of the waves... (This is an edited version for comparison only...
