Everything is possible
In water
The rigid trunks of the trees
Rest and relax
In this waving water
As they get rid of
What is unbendable
Despite the past stronger winds
And what tight was
Becomes soft
And eased off
Yes, everything is possible
In water
Water gets rid of tears
And all the others
who come to reflect…
It all becomes whimsical
Progressing into that unreal stop
Even your tough face today
Sweetly swinging
Smiles
on water.

Painted Reflection by Astrid Strahm

water changes everything but is it only on the surface...i do think there is much we can learn from water, flowing, fluid around or over its obstacles....
Even flooding rivers are not perturbed.
They roll along: around, under, over.
I like that reflection can
change smirk into smile.
And yet--what is happening
in those depths, we do not see.
One in a loooong string of gems, Dulce! Thanks!
i like how your lines flow like the water of river in your poem...and so true..there are things possible in water that wouldn't be without it's fluid weightlessness
Water is indeed a powerful element. It can rust the powerful iron, can put off fire and can cause destruction through powerful tidal waves. Inspite of all that, I absolutely like that element :)
Lovely thoughts, dear Dulce. How I missed your verses! Glad to be back to read them.
Joy always,
Susan
Nice one..
I wonder how the romance would look like without this element...
Best,
Priyanka
Wonderful. The words and images you create merge beautifully.
Especially like the image. The words work with it so well. Water softens the image of almost everything. Again your words capture this also, very well.
loving it!
Lovely...even I can move without pain in water so it is special to me!
Thanks for posting my Work with this wonderful poem. Astrid Strahm
Water is such a powerful element it has the ability to build and destroy http://whydowelovethisway.blogspot.com/2010/02/seasons-of-love.html
