Life’s an ever changing process
Like a flowing river
Even when you seem to be standing still
Life moves around you
It’s all fluid
Like a dance
Constantly in motion
Down hills
Over rocks
Raging off waterfalls
Nothing lasts for more than a moment
And no two moments are alike
Even during times where life seems to shatter
Like it’s made of glass
the brokenness is only illusion
For nothing breaks
It only transforms
Like where the river meets the ocean
It expands
Unbroken
Continuous
That’s really good. And beautiful, I was able to picture that in my mind if that makes sense

First time i read your poems. My favorite part is “nothing breaks it only transforms”. This way to see things “change” makes a lot of things easier to understand. Thank you.

Life can be a wild river ride, so I regularly like to rest on the shore.
The formlessness of water make it the most formidable of enemies.
The tossing waves can be overwhelming unless we put them in perspective.
But without the river there would be no life, and nothing would flourish.
The journey home is the most welcoming one of all, and I won’t make it unless I get back in the boat.

I love it!!
After having 6 or 7 decades behind me this really gets me. I feel it almost daily now, the flow…as a kid I waded in streams a lot. Turning over rocks to see the creatures fast and slow flitting about….. and trying to catch them.
