~
like water our mood
reflects the pallor
of the sky, be it an
blue optimistic smile
or a grey cautious
hooded scowl,
like water time runs
easily through our
desperate grasping
fingers as we seize
its threadbare coat
and vainly bid it stay,
like water we give
buoyancy and hope
to each other, a mutual
life raft to rise above
the waves at times of
peril and distress,
*
( stay fluid, it makes sense)
