'Liquid Essence'

'Liquid Essence'

Oh Water...

You Princess of the Earth

Your glittering jewels

Found everywhere

Strewn around carelessly

On mossy banks..

On uplifted leaves..

On flower petals...

Drinks for the bees

and butterflies

Springs running under the earth

And gathering to make streams

and Rivers and oceans...

Water..falling from the sky..

Called Rain...In mist..or sheets

As thunder rolls

And lightning makes you

Sparkle even more...

I love to bathe in you..

Feel you lapping at my skin

Playing with you merrily

Throwing you onto my face..

Ahhh..Water..My Princess

Giver of Life

Never leave me.
