River of Emotion

Despair is the one sin that cannot be forgiven.

Wa Thiong'o [James Ngugi] Ngugi (1938– )


 Despair is the one sin that cannot be forgiven.

River of Emotion       

 


 


 


River of emotion
Stream that flows ceaselessly
Down through every tributary
She gathers momentum
Coursing the plains
That had been left untapped
Filling and reaching the farthest extreme
The point where souls meet…
Unify and identify


 


 

With her dance of lively sparkling bubbles
She tries so longingly to engage
The stillness of the quiet pool
To feed it, to evoke its desire to flow
Encourage and urge it to remember
Just how good it used to be
Swirling and twirling
Dropping down rapids
  Touching bodies of foreign matter
Brushing past boulders
Feeling the warmth of the midday sun
Hiding in the coolness of a gentle stream

 


 


 


 

When night skies reflected upon
With her brilliant resplendent jewels
Lucent orb casting her magical glow
She tries to encourage it to flow
It lays still and so silent… unmoving

 


 

 

Will it refuse to merge?
Failing to blend
With crystallized emotions
Or substance
To remain forever…
Trapped in its dark abyss?

It is only in the water's stillness
that we can see our reflection. Yet
it continues to ebb and flow even though
it is only visible when we look with the heart.

Blessings,
Joseph

Pleanty of metaphor in this flowing poem, Elga. We can hold back in life and become stagnant or we can move forward with the motion of life and keep on keepin' on. Our strength comes with moving forward, facing all that lies there, collecting energy and rolling into the next lesson packed bend. Beautiful poem!!
Take care,
Sherry
