River of Life

Another poem. Just letting the words flow, so sorry if it's everywhere. 🙂‍↕️ Partially inspired by the novel Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse.

Nothing Burns Like The Cold.

But, sakura trees bloom after even the harshest winter.

Down by the river's bank,

the point where water meets land,

'I' will be waiting, instrument in hand.

Here, graceless views meet the sun,

through the reflection of the water, see We are One.

Struggle and strife,

toil in spite.

Hear the river speak

of Life.

Voices in the water

flow as One Breath.

A stream of moments,

eternal past Death.

Stars shine brightest

through darkness night,

O' Soul, Bringer of Light

Formless as void, shapeless as water.

Ye who are Child, Mother, Father,

Bless Me, For I am You and Ye are I.

Down by the river's bank,

the point where water meets land,

'I' will be waiting, instrument in hand.

Underneath the blossoming tree,

draped in pink petals of sakura.

Below the bright, blue sky

was the girl who found Love

liberated her wings to fly–

with the eagle and dove.

Strength and peace

In oneness essence

O' Soul, Eternal Flame,

Ye vastless seas

of knowledge and presence

Illuminate US through darkness and pain

on this Great Way path,

For–

Sakura trees bloom after even the harshest winter.

Spirit's

Spellwords

Cast

Quicker than lightning's flash

Down by

The River of Life

Where the trees

meet the cosmos greatest heights

I will sit–

Listening to the Music of Existence

Passed the Veil

Beyond the distance.

- Love, Nova.
